Wine Tasting #42

Name: Vigna Lenuzza
Variety: Cabernet Franc
Region: Friuli
Country: Italy
Year: 2011
Price: $5.95
Shop/Wine Critic Review: With a ruby red color and with intense purplish reflections it has a nose of red fruits like cherry, raspberry, and blackberry, to spices like marjoram, rhubarb and white pepper. On the palate it is pleasantly fresh, not too heavy, with sweet tannins and with soft herbaceous notes, which are the traditional characteristics of the Cabernet-Franc. - Vintage Cellar
My Review: This wine has strong hints of cherry, raspberry, and blackberry. It was very oaky and smoky which I didn't enjoy that much. The tannins were very heavy in this one.
