Tasting- Prime Brume

Name: Prime Brume
Variety: Soave
Year: 2015
Region: Soave
Country: Italy
Price: $6.95

My Review: This light- colored, white wine had a fruity, good smell. The taste was fairly dry and fruity as well. I tasted hints of pear and apple specifically.

Shop Review: "Brilliant emerald straw color. Aromas and flavors of brazil nuts, creme faiche, and kiwi and starfruit with a silky, lively, dry-yet-fuity light-to-medium body and an effortless, engaging, medium-length watermelon, yellow apple, and clementine finish. A delicious artfully balanced soave with a great range of fruit flavors.

This wine was tasted with no food.

Tasting: Vinedos Real Rubio Rioja Crianza

Image
Name: Viendos Real Rubio Variety: Tempanillo Graciano Year: 2010 Price $16 Region: Rioja Country: Spain My Review: The smell was rich with hints of fruit jelly. This wine was a darker color and fairly smooth with a slightly bitter taste and hints of pepper, blackberry, and oak. Winery Review: "Lightly baked berry aromas vie for attention with leather, spice and mild earth notes, and the result is disjointed. On the palate, this is tight as a drum initially, but more expansive as it unfolds. Cherry, plum, raspberry, vanilla and wood spice flavors finish pure, clean, and easy. This is a fine yet manageable Rioja that's not trying to hard." *This wine was tasted with no food.

This wine was also smooth. Winery Review: "The garnacha de fuego Rose is a solid effort that has a light salmon color to go with notions of cherry blossom, orange peel and herbs de provence. Medium-bodied, supple, fresh easy-drinking, and an outstanding value" *This wine was tasted with no food.

Tasting- Arrow Creek Merlot

Name: Arrow Creek Variety: Merlot Year: 2014 Region: California Country: USA Price: $7.99 My Review:  This smooth merlot was a deep red color. Aromas of berry and vanilla on the nose, with tastes of blackberry as well.  I initially selected this wine based on its label, as I liked the arrows and John Muir quote on the bottom; but, I really enjoyed this wine! Winery Review: "Friendly aromas of Bing cherries lead into rich flavors of dark berries and a long, silky finish. The palate is dense, the tannins smooth and the flavors intense." -Arrow Point website. *This wine was tasted with pizza, and paired very nicely!
