Wine Critic Review: This wine is medium dry. It has a beautiful intense pink color with perfumes of wild cherries and Bon-Bons. It tastes of strawberry jam and wild herbs with a wonderfully fresh background.
My Review: This wine had a very sweet nose. It tasted light and extremely tart with strong fruit flavor. I could taste strawberry and sour raspberry. Most interestingly, I could taste that musty, moldy, earthy taste that sometimes accompanies old raspberries. This wine was ok on its own, I think it would have been better with food because it is so tart and dry. I did not eat any food with this wine.
