Vintage Cellar Review:
"Proprietor's Red Blend. This wine is ripe and juicy with expressive flavors of cherries and plums. It is dark and aromatic with crisp acidity, nice structure and a lush finish. Made to pair with a wide variety of foods, this red wine is a must for everyday enjoyment or teaming with your favorite grilled and outdoor cuisine."
My Review:
This wine has a brownish cranberry hue with very little legs. It was very oaky, spicy, smokey, and meaty on the nose. As for taste, it was very sweet initially, then transitioning to a bit of spice. The initial taste is filled with cranberry, cherry, and other red berry flavors. The midtaste to aftertaste were a little tannic. This wine was decent, but I'm not a fan of the spicy, earthier flavors, so it wasn't my favorite.
Pairings: I didn't try this with food, but I think it would be good with roast beef and mashed potatoes.
I taste chilled red wine which is better to me than wine at room temperature.
