This is a wine provided by the West Wind Farm Vineyard and Winery. It is a blend of Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, and Chambourcin. It was a 2010 vintage. It costs $19 for the bottle, $205.20 for the case, and $7 for a glass. It is from Max Meadows, Virginia. This particular wine is one that I expected to have notes of woodiness, but I was pleasantly surprised by what it truly brought to the taste buds. It was most definitely a fruit-forward wine. It wasn't so much a dark berry wine that I would have also expected, but it was more of a red berry wine. It was acidic but was well balanced. It had bold flavoring. I would recommend this wine to most. Now it is not a sweet wine as you may think with the descriptions of fruit, but it has a light tannic structure somewhat. The winery describes this wine as a fruit-forward wine that exhibits notes of berries and cherries. I believe this wine would surely be nice with cheese and bread with maybe some oils for dipping. Also, it might be nice with a nice light soup that was cream based, this would cut nicely through that cream with a hint of acidity.
