Wine shop (Total Wine) review: The nose bursts with aromas of intense dark fruits, cinnamon, clove, and subtle oak aromas. The palate is dominated by flavors of black cherries and blackberries, accented by vanilla and toasty oak and finishing long with round, soft tannins.
Wine Folly: pg. 88- I tasted the black cherry and a hint of cedar, maybe some of the black currant too. I did not get any baking spices or graphite. I drank it slightly chilled from room temperature as recommended, but I did not decant for 60 minutes, so that may have affected the flavor profile. On page 214, dried blackberry is mentioned, which I was able to taste as well.
My review: I actually quite enjoyed this wine. I thought it was rich and full-bodied, with a good amount of tannins, but not too overpowering. It was very dry and slightly acidic. I tasted dried cherries and blackberries, with a slight taste of plums. There was a bit of a smoky aftertaste as well. I did not taste this wine with food. Overall, I liked this wine and would try it again.
