Tasting - Velvet Crush Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon & Petite Sirah Blend



Name - Velvet Crush Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon & Petite Sirah Blend
Variety - Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, and Petit Sirah Blend
Region - California
Country - USA
Year - 2012
Price - $18, Sale $7
Winery Review - "Velvety smooth texture just like its name. Soft tannins and lush dark fruit character. Cabernet Sauvignon and Petite Sirah bring backbone and character, while the Merlot balances out the blend for a soft, smooth texture."
My Review - This wine had a gorgeous deep color in the glass. Exhibiting cherry and a hint of spice on the nose, I could not wait to try it. Packed with tannins, this dry wine had a long finish full of spice and pepper. Dark fruit also comes through on the body, and this wine would pair great with food.

I tasted this on its own with no food.
