I normally don't pick up something with such a pedantic label, but this one caught my eye after looking at the alcohol content.  14.5%, the nose has a punch to it, and the color is a nice deep purple.  Taking a sip, you get dark cherries but a little off-sweet.  You also get a hint of blackberries in the finish.  While the label looks less than professional, the quality is very good.  This is a wine to romance someone with.

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.
