Winery Review:
Make no mistake, raw terroir and spicy garrigue abound in these wines, with rich, juicy fruit and silky tannins (www.snooth.com)My Review:
I fell in love with this wine's label. I have been on a red wine kick, and enjoyed this red's interesting combination between smokey tobacco and rich dark raspberry/cherry flavors. This red had a ruby-like complexion and hit the nose hard with the smokey and dark cherry notes. Rich in tannins, this red landed sweet on the mid-palate, and transitioned into a tangy/leathery flavor sensation towards the end. This is definitely one of those reds that keeps on changing and expressing new flavor profiles with each new glass. I would say that this red is decently balanced, and in the appropriate price range.
