Wine Shop Review: Don’t let the pale garnet color fool you:
this is a substantial wine. Aromas of red fruits and spice compliment
undertones of cranberries, wild berries, and plums. On the palate, ripe tannins
and good body make for an incredibly rich, yet easygoing red wine. Pair this
with sausage, spicy curry sauces, hot soppressata, and tandoori chicken.
My Review: This wine was extremely interesting. I did not
think that it was going to be good because it was extremely light colored. It
had a nice spice aspect on the nose, with hints of oak and red fruit. This wine
had a very nice tannin level to it, which was very surprising. It was extremely
easy to drink. It had a very bright aspect to it with nice cranberry and plum
flavors. This would go well with nice spicy foods, but I will probably not try
it again in the future.
I did not taste this wine with food.
