Winery Review: Bright purple. High-pitched red berry and floral
scents display good clarity and a hint of cracked pepper. Shows a touch of
jamminess to its pliant black raspberry and cherry compote flavors, with a
spicy quality adding vibrancy. Finishes with good focus and no obvious tannins,
leaving a sweet berry note behind.
My Review: The first observation I made for this sample was the bright purple color. To me, both the flavor and smell seemed earthy. I also noticed the flavor or cranberries. This wine was also very dry to my mouth.
