Wine Tasting- Potomac Point Red Table Wine

Varietals: 50% Merlot, 25% Cabernet Franc, 25% Cabernet Sauvignon
Region: Northern Neck, VA and Orange, VA
Country: Where Freedom Rings

Winery Review: "It is a Bordeaux-style blend. Aged in French oak for 12 months. Lots of ripe red fruit especially raspberry. It has a smooth mouth feel with good acidity levels. Very easy and very drinkable."


My Review: This wine was very nice and easy going. I'm sure most people who like red will enjoy it because all of the aspects were nicely balanced with things everyone likes and there wasn't anything too overpowering. There was lots of red berry and plum flavor, a nice acidity, and nice tannins on the finish. It also had a medium body, not too like and not too heavy or dry. I feel as though it is very versatile and could pair with many dishes. Good, safe wine just not astonishing.
