Winery Review: On the nose cherry, plum, and berry aromas mingle with notes of spice and tobacco. On the palate soft, supple tannins, and refreshing acidity are beautifully balanced by ripe cherry fruit flavors on the finish which is dry, harmonious, and elegant.
My Review: There was an obvious green pepper component on the nose as well as on the palate. Black pepper was also evident on the palate, and overall this red was fairly bitter. I would like to try this tannic wine with a dish to see if the pair gives it a more smooth finish. I would give this wine an 85. This time I tasted it on its own with no food.
