Cervene Vino Rosso – 2013; Moravia Vineyards and Winery; Schulenburg, Texas
This Black Spanish (aka Lenoir) blend brings out the
best qualities and character of this grape. Sometimes it can be a challenge to
decide what to do with this grape varietal, but Moravia has elevated this grape
to the next level. Admiring good wine legs is always a treat and this red
wine does not disappoint. On the nose, aromas of plums, cedar, and pepper
are pronounced. Decanting for at least an hour or more helped enhance the bold flavors
of blackberry, cherry, and some currant. It’s medium acidity and medium
body are still intact. Six years of aging has softened this wine and made it
quite palatable for all. Moravia’s Black Spanish is worth the trip and sip.
Cheers!
