80% Corvina, 20% Rondinella.  I am thinking purple robes of an emporer when I try this.  There is an instant hit of smoke, concentrated dark fruits and some come hither attitude to this wine.  Viviana pointed out the tobacco, which I just realized and it does have some deeper spice to it.  This is a wine you sit down with, and take your time with, and share with a lover.  The finish lasts and lasts.  There is a depth to this wine which makes it one of those things that you enjoy, remember and reminesce over.  Now wait until I get home.

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.
