Taste: Smooth and sweet; you can definitely taste the cherries
Finish: Taste just lingers and coats the mouth
Overall Impression: The scent throws you off because you think it's going to be a hot wine, but it was delicious. It was very good with Havarti cheese. I would definitely get this one again, but more for me. I wouldn't want to share this at a party!
