I'm sorry, but this wine just lacks a lot of body for me; it has the alcohol content, but just has no punch. It does have some berry, and does have some color, but it's like the diluted version of a good full-fledged Pinot Noir. The aroma is nice, and the weight is palatable for almost anyone. But you know, it's just missing complexity and oomph.

Our Mission: The Black Winer strives to expose African Americans [and others] to wines, without the flair, stuffiness, and airs of elitism and snobbery that you get from sommeliers and high level wine enthusiasts. We believe in finding something that you like the taste of, outside of the basic brands that you have been force-fed over the years through a combination of ethnically targeted advertising, and what people in your family have historically been drinking.
