What Am I Tasting?

This solidly built red has cherry, licorice, tar and truffle notes ... Play the game!

August 09, 2024

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: Cherry, plum, licorice and tar aromas and flavors are the hallmarks of this solidly built red. There are some funky, beguiling truffle and woodsy elements, and the firm tannins put a grip on the heady finish.
