Winery Review:
-"Beautiful ruby appearance, with blackberry and pepper notes. Tannins and fruit marry well for a soft finish. This wine pairs well with sharp cheddar cheese and hazelnuts. Also try it along with roast lamb at Easter time, veal marsala, or grilled salmon."
My Review:
-87 Points
-I usually have good experiences with Crane Lake wines, but this one, for me, was underwhelming. On the nose, I got strong earthiness with hints of plum. To the taste, I got very strong vegetable with hints of pepper. This wine reminded me of Christmas time. I tried this wine on its own without food.
