Shop Review:
Bright and tangy, offering a classic banana note on the nose, with flavors of raspberry, wild strawberry and light spice. Modest finish.
My Review:
Before reading the shop review, one of my friends said something about bananas. I took a sniff and definitely got strawberry bananas. It wasn't a bad smell, but it didn't cover up the alcohol smell as well as some wines I have tasted lately. The taste did not go hand in had with the smell. It was not a "raspberry, and wild strawberry" flavor. I got something of a spice; more of an alcohol burn spice than anything else. This wine was very dry and very bitter.
