Wine Shop Review: Bright and tangy, offering a classic banana note on the nose, with flavors of raspberry, wild strawberry and light spice. Modest finish.
My Review: This was another new grape variety for me, but I was pleasantly surprised. This wine had a pinkish-red color, and a sweet, wild strawberry flavor on the nose. I was really surprised by the obtrusive fruit flavors - a strawberry and raspberry flavor came through really strong. For such this price, I was really pleased with how it tasted. I didn't try it with food but it seems like a really nice picnic wine.
