Wine review: Red Diamond celebrates the personality of Washington's distinctive red wines. Layers of luscious flavors are revealed in each bottle, exuding style and confidence. Our Red Diamond Cabernet is multi-faceted and complex with layers of berry, cherry, and toasty oak flavors, sure to offer an enjoyable wine experience every time.
My review: This was an okay red wine; I would rank it a 6.5 or 7 out of 10. The aromas were very nice, but a little strong. It smelled mostly of dark berries and wood (probably the toasted oak mentioned above). The taste, however, was much too peppery for me. The wine itself was pretty dry, and it did not actually have much heat (13.5% alcohol), making it go down smoothly without much mouth puckering. The texture was nice, but the taste was not my favorite. I did not pair this with any food, which may have helped balance this wine out since it was so full bodied. I probably would not try it again.
