This wine is the Sokol Blosser Meditrina. It does not have a year that is verified. It is produced in the United States, in Oregon specifically. It is a non-varietal red blend of pinot noir, syrah, and zinfandel. Its price at the Vintage Cellar is $7.95.Vintage Cellar's review:
The taste is lush and velvety with notes of raspberry and cherry. They say that it pairs well with anything off the grill and also with pasta.
My review:
The wine had scents of flower and raspberry. It was much more of a smooth wine with a powerful vibrancy of flavors when observing the taste. It was more of a smooth taste than some red wines. It did not have an overpowering smoky bite. It did have some bite to it, but not overwhelmingly so. This may be attributed to the blend aspect. I am a fan of pinot noir so this may be the reasoning for me to think it did not have a strong spicy taste. This wine was not bad. It was not my favorite by far. If you are looking for a wine that won't break the bank to pair with your pastas or grilling attire then this would not be a bad choice.
