Vintage Cellar Review: Doesn’t try to hide its warm-climate terroir, with a soft texture
framing jammy-sweet black raspberry, cherry, red currant, root
beer and sweet tea. Drink now.
I never thought it was possible for me to like red wine to the point that I would crave it, but this CHANGED me. Immediately I bought a bottle after the tasting. The smell first of all was kind of spicy and tickled my nose like the other two didn't. The taste was very sweet, as someone in class noted, like kool-aid. It was a red wine I could back to over and over again. Even after the taste of it was gone, it left a new, dry sensation on my tongue that I never noticed when trying red wines. It was really good and I was eager to share it to my other friends who also thought it was delicious. I'm definitely going to remember this next time I'm actually in the mood for red wine.
A goal of mine from this class was to be able to appreciate red wines since I always disliked them. To have this strong of a reaction to a red wine in the first week is awesome and is a start even though this one was really sweet and fruity. I can't wait to try more red wines similar to this and improve my taste for red wines!
