-- Notes from the Vintage Cellar
My review:
Deep red in color. Pick up a little cherry and spice on the nose with an overall slightly fruity aroma. I was hoping the cherry would come through in the flavor of the wine, but it was too dry for me. The high tannic component was overwhelming and I couldn't get a whole lot out of this wine. Not for me, but someone who enjoys dry red wines would probably like this.
