Winery Review: Ruby in color and displays aromas of lavender, ceder and raspberry fruit. Flavors of blackberries and respberries combined with hints of savory spices coat the palate. The soft tannins and sweet oak balance lead to a long and lingering finish.
My Review: The first thing I noticed was the color of this wine; it was a deep red. On the noise I got cherries, black current, and a blackberry jam smell. The smell of fruits and berries was very apparent in this wine. After tasting the wine, my mouth was full of raspberries. The wine was dry which I was not expecting and was not a very big fan of. However the thought the wine was well balanced in terms of alcohol, sweetness, and fruity aspects. On the back end of this wine you could get some oaky notes, also once you took a sip and but the glass down there a postponed zing that hit the back of your tongue. I really liked that aspect of it, and never had a wine that did that before.
