-Wine Spectator
My Review: The girl at Vintage Cellar told us that this wine was made with the Gomay grape, which are harvested before they are fully ripe, which adds to the flavor. The smell was VERY fruity: a mix of plum, raspberry, and even certain candies came to mind, like a starburst. The taste was not as sweet as the smell. It was a very smooth wine, with hints of berry. The aftertaste was tart, but not sour. This was a pretty good-tasting wine, a solid choice.
