What Am I Tasting?

This red is saturated and balanced with black fruit, violet and wild herb notes ... Play the game!

May 16, 2025

Our blind tasting game—without the tasting! Can you identify a wine just by reading its tasting note? We post real Wine Spectator reviews. You use clues such as color, aromas, flavors and structure to figure out the grape, age and origin. Good luck!

Tasting Note: Violet and wild herb aromas give way to flavors of black cherry, blackberry and black currant in this tense, saturated red. Just beginning to relax and open up now. Shows terrific balance, with a long, black pepper–infused aftertaste.
