Wine Tasting - Dom la Ricoune St Gervais CDR

Dom la Ricoune St Gervais CDR
$15.95
2011
Cotes du Rhones Villages
France
Syrah and Grenache grape variety

The Vintage Cellar says:
Inky. Intense and complex nose, fruity and spicy. Aromas of berries, garrigue, licorice, cinnamon, cloves. The palate is intense and fresh. Red fruits. Seductive and lingering finish.

This wine has a strong smell. I could detect a mix of berries: blackberries, raspberries, cherries. It's a full-bodied wine. It tasted strongly of blackberries. It was sweeter. The cinnamon and licorice flavors came in later. I liked it very much, especially for a red.
