Critic's Review: 
Brambly Berry, cherry, and raspberry, spices, black pepper...all are present in this authentic French country wine. - Vintage Cellar

My Review: 
This wine was good for the pricing. It was nothing to write home about, but good nonetheless. It started with a nose of black pepper, dark chocolate, cherries, wood, and smoke. Upon tasting, it was found that this wine was much like the one before it in that it tasted much like it smelled. There were strong notes of cherries, and wood chips, along with a finish of black pepper. 


I did not taste this wine with food.
