Tasting - Vina Galana

Vina Galana

Alicante Bouchet 2012
Regular Price - $15
Sale Price - $9.95
Spain

Winery Review: From the rare Alicante Bouchet, one of the few grapes in the world with red flesh this wine has a plush texture carring flavors of brandied cherry and chocolate ganache in this round red. Light tannins and gentle acidity impart a lovely, balanced structure.

My Review: This wine had a strong red color. The aroma reminded me of brandy with a sharp alcoholic bite to it and it had a creaminess in the smell almost like sweet butter. The tannins were evident as soon as I tasted it and it had a metallic taste to it almost like blood. I did not like this wine at all.
