Winery Review: "Bright purple. Exotic, expansive aromas of black and blue fruit preserves, vanilla and cola, along with a peppery overtone and a hint of violet pastille. Broad, fleshy, appealingly sweet boysenberry and cherry liqueur flavors show excellent depth and a seamless texture. Finishes juicy and long, with building spiciness, an echo of blue fruit and round tannins."
My Review: This wine was a bit heavier than the previous in this weeks tasting. The smell was sweet, and the initial sip left a definite aftertaste. The taste lingered for a good while. I didn't pick up any of the peppery undertone, however, I did get a hint of fruit.
Paired with food: Not this time.
