Aaron: They lost points for the name – seriously?? – but won them back with the wine. The full earthy smell featured cinnamon and peppermint with a slight sweetness; this was unique and tantalizing. There was a subtle complexity to the flavor which was medium bodied and smooth with some noticeable tannins. The taste was comprised mostly of nearly-ripe berries but had hints of other participants (hence the subtlety). The finish was nice but left some chalkiness on the tongue. 91 points
Teri: This red blend from France carries a medium smell of fruit with a smooth flavor and medium tannins. I tasted strong strawberry/cranberry at the start melting into a strawberry finish with a hint of spicy oak. This almost tasted more like juice than wine. 89 points
Thanks for trying my wine! Sorry about the name — I think I had too much Trah Lah Lah before designing the labels.
We love people who take pride in their work! Especially those who respond to posts 🙂
