Shop/wine critic/winery review: Vintage Wine Cellar/ Courtney/ A beefy, herb-tinged red, sporting dense layers of plum sauce, grilled fig and currant paste, stacked with notes of roasted game, rosemary and hummus. The finish lingers, despite noticeable tannins.
Your Review: This was a very bitter, strong, overwhelmingly plum flavor that left a powerful impression on my tongue and nose. When I smelled the wine it raised my nose hairs and made me shake. Another aspect of this wine was how heavy it was on the stomach, which was a unique feature of this wine.
