Winery Review:
Aged for two years in
cask, the 2008 Carrascal is a blend of 40% Malbec, 35% Cabernet Sauvignon and
25% Merlot. It has a rustic blackberry, scorched earth and leather-scented
bouquet with touches of pressed flowers. The palate is well-balanced with crisp
tannins, expressive black tarry fruit and a Bordeaux-like finish. Drink
now-2016.
My review: The wine scent focused on a leathery (specificially cigars) and blackberry smell. It was very strong and powerful. The taste of the wine had leathery flavors and was very acidic. I didn't enjoy this wine at all. The combination of cigars, leathers, and acidic made this wine throughly unenojyable. I was not a fan of this at all.
Food Pairing: None
