Vintage Cellar Review:

"Vivid ruby. Spice-accented red and dark berry aromas show good clarity and a hint of fresh rose. Juicy and seamless on the palate, offering lively currant and bitter cherry flavors that become sweeter with air. Clings with good tenacity on the energetic finish, which repeats the floral note and shows no tannins."



Personal Review: 

It was interesting to learn that this is made from the "great red grape of Spain". This is a perfect sweet yet savory wine. It also has a beautiful red color and amazing floral aroma. While the cellar review claims a bitter cherry flavor, I tasted more of the sweet flavors off the bat. As I have mentioned in previous blogs I do not like very sweet wine. This wine however is perfect as it is not as intense on the pallet.

Cheers!
