Winery Review: "This ruby-colored wine has
aromas of raspberry, cherry and a hint of vanilla. Flavors of cherry and plum
lead to a soft velvety finish. This wine can be enjoyed by itself. It is also
an excellent accompaniment with appetizers and main courses. This wine goes
well with Brie, goat cheese and smoked salmon, lamb shanks and pork tenderloin."
My Review: The initial scent was smokey with subtle fruity flavor. I found the taste to be more on the fruity side. Definitely darker fruits like plum and cherry. Although I did not try this wine with food, after reading the winery review, I would really love to try this with some of the suggested food pairing as I think the plum like flavor would go well with the cheeses.
