Shop/wine critic/winery review - Dark in color and rich when young, with dominant flavors of blackcurrant. These primary fruit aromas give way to herb/garrigue characteristics as the wine opens.
My Review - This is the first red wine I tried and enjoyed it. I shaked this one in my hand to "heat it up" then smelled it before tasting it. I think smelling it before hand enhanced its flavor because it smelled incredible. Something about it the scent enhanced the flavor and made me enjoy it more. Went down smooth and was more dry then the other wines, but this isn't necessarily a bad thing.
Food- none
