Wine Review: Dark, ruby-red color with violet highlights. Intense and fragrant bouquet with a rich array of red and
black fruit aromas and flavors. Harmonious and velvety on the palate. Great balance and structure. Excellent with grilled or roasted meats, game and cheeses.
My Review: Decent. The wine was very, very dark. For some reason the smell of this wine reminded me of Christmas. It could just be me, but the wine smelled like cinnamon and lavender. The taste was more of a blackberry taste with a lingering smokey feel in the finish. I did not taste this wine with food.
