Review: Rooty, spicy and baked on the nose, with aromas that lean towards raisin. The palate is more gritty and acidic, with raisin, cola, and spic flavors. Darkens up on the finish, which is long and peppery, with adequate juiciness and a final note of tomato.
My Review: The wine's smell reminded me of other deep reds that I've had before. I thought it was richer and more pleasant than the previous red wine I tasted (the Beaujolais Nouveau). I thought it was very smooth and a wine that would probably be worth drinking.
Food? I did not have this wine with food.
