Wine Tasting #13

Name: Eikeboom
Variety: Pinotage
Region: Southern Cape
Country: South Africa
Year: 2015
Price: $6.95
Shop/Wine Critic Review: “Pleasant notes of baked plum and black-cherry compote
present an enticing bouquet to this wine. The palate is sharper and leaner in feel,
with tart and slightly bitter fruit-skin flavors that finish clean but quick.
Drink now” (Wine Enthusiast).
My Review: Wow -- I really hated this one. The color was nice, but I it didn’t have any strong fruit flavorings that boosted it. Also, it was spicy in the middle which I did not particularly enjoy. I did not have this wine with food.
