Winery review: A ruby-red wine with full flavors of ripe red fruits and a hint of spice. Pinnacoli has flavors of wild strawberry through the palate, finishes with a rich fullness and hints of cinnamon.
Roasted and spiced meats, pasta with meat sauce, game, and spicy cheeses.
My review: OK this was garbage, the last time I had a wine from a bottle that looked like this I also didn't like it. I distinctly remember not even wanting to try this wine at all cause the smell was horrid. It was a sharp pungent smell that was I guess kinda fruity. When I forced myself to drink some I wanted to spit it out cause it was just slightly better than the smell. It was deep, berry, and mouth puckering. Would not drink or even smell again.
I did not have this with food.
