Her comments:
Rich in colour, fruity smell, very aromatic, smooth, warming, full-bodied.
My comments:
Deep violet, burgundy colour, bouquet of blackberries, sort of woody.
surprisingly sweet, not too spicy, juicy,
notes of dark chocolate
From botttle: "Character: Lively red and black pepper. Rich and spicy on palate, with ripe tannins and a lingering finish."
From LCBO website: Tasting Note
Dark purple in colour; aromas of spice, wood & cigar; full-bodied with flavours of black cherry & spice; tannic finish.
I would say this is less full flavored than some shiraz (same type of wine). But very drinkable. 8/10.
14% alcohol. $18.95 at LCBO
