Wine Tasting - Ferrari-Cerano Siena

Ferrari-Cerano Siena
$40 ---> $24.95
2010
blend of Malbec, Serat and some Cabernet 
Sonoma County, CA
USA

The Vintage Cellar says:
Delicious aromas and flavors of fresh-picked blackberries, raspberry jam, cola, cinnamon and clove. Sweet oak notes of vanilla and butterscotch complement lingering tart cherry, cranberry and strawberry. A wine with nice acidity and refined, elegant texture, SIENA has tannins that are showy and evenly coat the palate.

I could very much smell a mix of berries. It has a very sweet taste and a spice that emerged suddenly at the end--cinnamon. It had a very vanilla-y, honey-y, butterscoth-y flavor. Its taste stays on the tongue. I didn't have food with it, but I imagine it would need something to cut the sweetness.
