Tasting- Vina Galana Alicante Bouchet

Name: Vina Galana 
Variety: Alicante Bouchet
Region: n/a
Country: Spain 
Year: 2012
Price: $15

Winery Review:  From the rare Alicante Bouchet, one of the few grapes in the world with red flesh  this wine has a plush texture carring flavors of brandied cherry and chocolate ganache in this round red. Light tannins and gentle acidity impart a lovely, balanced structure.    

My Review: I think this wine smelt vinegary, buttery, and semi sweet. The wine had a bad taste to me, sort of dirt like. Was a dry wine as well.
