Wine Tasting - Carini

Name: Carini
Variety:  Alicante Bouschet
Region: Lodi, California
Country: USA
Year: 2013
Price: $25, on sale for $7.95
Winery review: Opaque ruby in color, once in the glass the nose explodes right away. Delightfully intoxicating aromas of black and blue berry fruit leap forward first, followed by notes of cherry hard candy, crushed violets, caramel, allspice, cloves, and cigar box. In your mouth, more persistent and chewy berry fruit: blue and black + lots of sour cherry and tart blackberry.


My review: Smells of blackberry jam, light body, light tannins but has a kind of fruity aftertaste. definitely enjoyed this one.
