My review:
Smell -This wine was really aromatic. It smelled of raspberries. It was also quite smokey.
Taste - This wine was really smooth. I could tell it was a more expensive wine because of how it felt in my mouth. The flavors were also well blended together. I could taste tannins and spices. It also tasted a little smokey like the smell. However, I could not taste any fruit flavors in this wine either. This wine had such a long finish. I think I waited nearly 5 minutes before I decided that eating a piece of bread was the only way to clear my palate. I wasn't a huge fan of the flavor of this wine, but I could tell it was well crafted.
I tasted this on its own without food.
