Search Wine Tasting Notes

For a better Search Result, use the Advanced Wine Search. Else, enter the wine name and the vintage if desired, or the region for tasting notes. If you don’t get the result you’re seeking, either we do not have tasting notes on the wine or for that exact year. To help your search results, broaden your search to just the wine name and check for spelling errors. You can sort your results by ratings, vintage or alphabetically.

This was a bucket of jammy berries, vanilla and cooked sugar. With the texture of motor oil, heat like rocket fuel and flavors of a jammy berry pie, one sip was two sips too much. Perhaps as a dessert sauce, poured over vanilla ice cream, this would work. But as a wine, it was not my style. The wine was poured double blind by one of my friends thinking I would like it, if I did not know what it was. He was wrong. While I can see why some people would like this wine, (Which is why it scored 80) I am positive the wine and I will both be better off if we do not meet again.
