I confess to many people that I am a wine-o, I love trying new and different wines. However, I do not pretend to be a well educated wine taster. This is a skill I look forward to honing as I pass through life.
Wine of the Evening: Masked Rider, Petit Sirah, 2007 Sonoma, California
From the vineyard's website:
This 2007 Petite Sirah has lots of dark plum, blackberry and fruit aromas. The taste of berries and black pepper on the mouth. A smooth mouthfeel and rounded tannins make this an enjoyable red wine.
The words that came to mind when drinking this were soft, and round. It has a longer finish, lingering pleasantly in the mouth.
It is recommended to eat this with chicken or pork, and I think it would go well with a pork roast. That being said I am sure it will taste lovely next to tonight's venison quesadillas.
Price ~$10 (Missouri, Macadoodle's)
Freya's Rating: 6
I probably would not buy it again, but it was a great deal as a part of the Macadoodle's case deal (buy a case of wine and get 10% off all wines not on sale)
