Winery Review:
Root: 1 Carmenere is a deep red color with gentle tannins and rich flavors of plum, blackberry and spice.
My Review:
This wine, true to the review, was really easy on the tannins and while I wasn't able to get a whole lot on the palette at first. The finish was spicy with, despite what the review claims, liquorice. I definitely did get other hints of blackberry on a second taste but never really got the plum. I had this wine with some grilled chicken and while it may be blasphemy (I wouldn't know yet), I thought the two worked together quite well.
