Tasting - Beringer Smooth Red Blend

Name: Beringer Founder's Estate Smooth Red Blend
Variety: Smooth Red Blend
Region: California
Country: United States
Year: 2012
Price: $15

Shop Review: A blend of Syrah, Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Petite Sirah. Without a doubt, very smooth and uniquely balanced. Not too dry but not too sweet. Has a foundation of raspberry and blackberry that lingers in the finish. A slight hint at vanilla and some spice when it touches your tongue.

My Review: For someone who typically does not enjoy red wines, this was a delicious surprise. The fruitiness was perfectly sweet without being overbearing and balanced the earthiness that peeped through the flavor.
