Wine of the Week - Munay 2010 Lucia's Blend

luciasblend2010munay

Mostly Syrah, blended with Tannat and Malbec, the dominant scent on this wine is sour cherry, with a little bit of woodiness detectable (which reads as the stem of the cherry).

A bit of a cough syrup taste, which coats the palate.  Complex notes of sour apple, cherry and caramel bubble up underneath.  A long finish that matures into a pleasant smokiness.  Although a little harsh up front, I recommend this wine for the way it develops.

14.5% alcohol
