Price: $8.95

Location: Vintage Cellar
Food Pairing: None
Winery Review: Very dark purple, with a reddish-violet edge, typical of this grape. Black plums, a hint of licorice and subtle spice, not overly complex but appealing. A big mouth full of juicy black fruit is well structured by tart acidity and soft but distinct tannins.
My Thoughts: The aroma is cherry licorice with mild spice and earthy notes. The flavor is a light spice with hints of nut, only mild tannins. The finish is short but leaves a lingering taste of cherry and berries.
