Shop Review: Superb dark garnet color with a few reflections of dark orange. Intense nose of ripe fruits, spices, and roasted coffee. The palate is rounded and full, with silky matured tannins and hints of vanilla. This wine is rich and powerful with layers of tannins.

 My Review: On this nose, I smelt some of the spices which are inside of this wine. I was also able to notice a tomato smell to this wine. On my palate, I noticed the spices within the wine. I was also able to detect some tannins, but they weren't as strong as a kick as some other red wines I have tried. This wasn't my favorite wine, but it wasn't that bad. 
 
With or Without Food: Without food
