Wine Critic Review: Vintage Cellar
"From the rare Alicante Bouchet, one of the few grapes in the world with red flesh  this wine has a plush texture carring flavors of brandied cherry and chocolate ganache in this round red. Light tannins and gentle acidity impart a lovely, balanced structure."

My Review:
This wine smelled of chocolate and I anticipated it to be sweet and tasty. I was surprised when this wine tasted of cigarette smoke. This was was really disgusting and I could not get the taste out of my mouth after tasting it. I did not taste this wine with food.
