Winery Review: "The nose is full of mellow raspberry and cherry, while the palate is fleshy and round, with blackberry and a touch of raisin. Plump, not edgy, and ready to drink, with coffee and mocha notes on the finish."
My Review: There was plum jam, strawberries ice cream, and hints of cinnamon on the nose. On the mid palate, there was a velvety, rich, and solid surface texture with plenty of red fruits such as strawberries, raspberries, and cherries. There was also subtle tones of almond milk. Full tannins complemented the strong finish, with again hints of cinnamon and coffee beans. I did not pair this with food, but I think it would do well with a tiramisu, cinnamon rolls, or dark chocolate.
