Shop Review: Superb dark garnet color with a few reflections of dark orange. Intense nose of ripe fruits, spices, and roasted coffee. The palate is rounded and full, with silky matured tannins and hints of vanilla. This wine is rich and powerful with layers of tannins.
My Review: I don't know what the person who wrote the review was thinking, but this wine smelt straight up like a barnyard. Like a mix of horse poo and hay. Maybe that's why I was so afraid to go ahead and taste it afterwards. The wine was bitter, with very little fruit flavor to it. I felt that it was really acidic, but there was also a floral component to it.
With Food? No
