Wine Review: This fine wine would be an elegant choice for next visit to your favorite steakhouse. This wine has a spicy and inviting anise like bouquet. On the palate, this medium bodied wine is extremely well balanced, has savory raspberry flavors, and is very food friendly. The finish is clean, juicy, and nicely dry. The wine truly calls for your favorite steak. Enjoy - Ken

Your comments on this wine:





Clinking Glasses Before Tasting Wine: Originates from medieval times. Milk was often spoiled, water was often polluted. Wine was usually safe. The host would drink the wine first and then clink glasses with guests to show the wine was good and safe for drinking.
