Wonderfully inky black colors containing a decadent melange of black currant, black cherries, dark plums and a little bit of cocoa.  This is one of those wines when you want to make a statement, whether with some people you want to impress, or a lady that you want to know better.  You don't get an exhorbitant amount of oak from this and the finish tapers off with a little spice that only lasts about twelve seconds.

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.
