Vintage Cellar Tasting Notes:
Rich and supple with juicy plum,
blackberry and chocolate flavors and a pleasant sense of sweetness backed up by
good acidity and moderate tannins. Offers early complexity and charm with real
richness and depth.
Personal Tasting Notes:
This red wine also had a very strong
and definite cherry tone to it in both the aroma and flavor of the wine.
This wine had a dark red color and complex, full bodied flavor although both
the color and the flavor were not as deep as the Chicken and Turkey wine.
I definitely tasted a dark chocolate flavor to the wine. I also found
this wine to be a bit dry for my tastes although not as dry as the Chicken and
Turkey, Cotes du Rhone. Had a more mild less lingering taste on the
palate with a smoother less acidic flavor.
I tasted this wine on its own with no food but I think it would go well with steak or perhaps pork.
