How can I pass this label and name up? This was $10 at the local wine shop.Strawberry and Twizzlers on the nose.
Fruity with a bit of burn. Sharp acid – almost too sharp, the alcohol also burns to a near uncomfortable level. The palate is mostly strawberries and a bit of earth and burnt coffee.
More of those burnt coffee notes linger on the finish.
If I had to compare this to anything I'd say it's like a Beaujolais on steroids. It's not bad, but somewhat atypical of a New World Grenache - as long as you know that, it's not a bad bottle. Too good to send to your ex on Valentine's Day and not good enough to buy your current sweetheart who's "taken the word back."
