critic/Winery Review: Intense pink color with violet hints. Fresh red fruit
bouquet, strawberry and cherry flavors, balanced acidity, dry and lingering
finish. Excellent with tuna or green salad, pasta, spicy Asian dishes.
My Review: So
first thing to note on this wine is that it actually not sweet. I got some sweetness on the nose that was a little
hidden but it was not really even semi-sweet by my standards. The smell of this was cherry, but more like
red cherries so not very strong. In the
taste, it had a little more flavor than the Cortenova before it but was still
very light. It almost seemed to me to
have a single flavor profile so was a little bit boring. It was fine but
nothing to write home about (or really to write on the blog about)
