Critic Review:  "Organically and naturally grown and made, this wine allows the varietal and the terroir to stand out cleanly. It shows a nice cherry color with a violet shade because of its youth. Red berries and cherries on the nose. On the palate it is fresh, slightly astringent, and harmonious with a long finish."

My Review: This wine gave off a fruity and earthy smell.  I could definitely smell cherries and some other fruits, such as cranberry.  This wine was enjoyable to drink, as it was soft, dry, and had a favorable amount of tannins.  I could taste the cherries and berries, as well as some raspberry.

I tasted this wine without food.
