CHARLES SMITH |
| Very deep intense purple colour. Slightly spicy, juicy, ripe plum-apple purée nose. Dry, medium bodied, spicy, bright, plum-cherry purée flavours with a crisp, fairly cedary, high acid finish. This blend of 71% Cabernet Sauvignon and 30% Sangiovese has 13.5% alcohol and 4 g/L residual sugar. TONY ASPLER / 88-points - Spicy, cedary, plum and blackcurrant bouquet with a minty note; full-bodied, dry, with a medicinal, bitter chocolate flavour. |

| This comes from the one and only Charles Smith, the Wild Man of Walla Walla. The ViNO label is an Italian-influenced line of wines that includes a Sangiovese rosé, a Pinot Grigio and this Cab/Sangiovese blend. TASTING NOTE: This blend of Cabernet Sauvignon (70%) and Sangiovese pops with fruit-forward aromas of blue fruit, red currant and herb. It packs a mouthful of elegant, somewhat angular, fresh fruit flavors, bringing a whole lot of appeal and tapering slightly toward the finish. Best Buy. Score - 89 (Sean P. Sullivan, Wine Enthusiast, Feb. 1, 2017) |
