Wine Critic: Opens relatively quickly. Has a nice light magenta color and basic legs. Nose of cranberry, plum and cola. Opening of red fruit favoring cherry with red licorice, mocha, ash and granite. Lighter bodied merlot and average acidity with basic tannins that emerge and fade quickly.
My Review: I actually bought this wine at Wegmans before I knew I was going to take this class. My thoughts on this wine is that it was very acidic. I could smell the berry right away. When smelling this wine a light bulb went off in my head and I recognized a smell. It took me a couple times to get my mind to match up with what I was smelling. It was licorice. It makes sense why I didn't enjoy this wine after realizing that because I dont like licorice.
Food: No food with this wine.
