12/20 * * LCBO:15$c VISUEL: rubis au pourtour légèrement violet OLFACTIF: sucré/épicé avec une forte odeur de clou de girofle. GUSTATIF: le clou de girofle persiste bizarrement.... je soupçonne un vin trafiqué par des levures et des ajouts synthétiques et peu fiables. Un Zinfandel ne peut goûter cela. ENSEMBLE: louche.....

Decanted with the Vinturi and allowed to open up for 45 minutes. Color: Deep garnet. Nose: Not much fruit on the nose. Some spice and pepper. Body: Medium Taste: About what one would expect from the nose; that is, a little spice, a little pepper, not particularly fruity. Little to no structure, which isn't a surprise at this price point ($4.49). Finish: Short, not much finish. Overall: Pretty average offering for the price point.
