  March 3, 2013 - Blind Food and Wine Pairing Dinner: (Peter & Sandra's): Blind dinner Anita: Medium cherry-ruby color; dusty earth, tea, cherry, tart raspberry, violet, touch cinnamon; mouth is intense, mixed concentrated red berries of red cherry, pomegranate, blackberry; lots of stony minerals, iron, and fern and light forest element (nettles?); massive structure with high acidity, lots of tannin, powerful fruit with iron; long tangy tart finish; even still, seems a bit closed and youthful. 92-93. This was a bit too acidic, and tannic for the sweetbread schnitzel (very succulent and creamy meat) with lingonberry sauce. A fleshier, softer wine worked better.
