Winery Review: Made with plump, juicy cherries. Sweet and rich. Smooth with crisp finish. Serve cool, pairs with Asain cuisine, duck, or chocolate.

My Review: This was an interesting one. On the nose, I certainly got cherries, but also caramel, nectar-y aromas. The first sip was sickeningly sweet yet dark, and the midpalate brought some heat to tame the sugars in this wine. The aftertaste was jammy, and while I didn't have any food with this wine, I felt it would have tasted better paired with cheesecake or some other dessert.
