Winery review: "This red wine blend offers intriguing flavors and aromas: roasted coffee, dark chocolate, pomegranate and black cherry intertwine to offer a multi-layered feel and sumptuous texture."

My review: This wine smells a lot like a Cabernet Sauvignon, with red fruit notes in the nose.  It tasted very tart with cherry and oaky flavors, as well as hints of spice.  The finish was not very strong at all.  This wasn't a bad wine by any means, but it was a little too oaky for my liking.
