Wine Critic Review (Provided by Vintage Cellar)This medium-bodied red offers roasted plum, kirsch, sage and game notes, with light tannins supporting the spicy finish.
My Review: This was a dark, dark wine. It smelled of some sort of dark berry (plum did come to mind). The taste was pungent to me, like burnt wood. I did not like this wine because it was very strong and bitter and would not drink it again.
With Food: No
