Review

"Glad to discover a new value red. Minerality balances out the strong red fruit notes. A bit too much oak for me but otherwise just fine for a budget buy." Review, found at (https://www.vivino.com/US/en/second-voyage-red-blend/w/6366755)

My Review

I was indifferent about this wine. It was not something I would buy again but I would drink it if someone poured me a glass. I thought the tannins were too unbalanced in terms of flavors. It started out tasting flat, but the flavors developed nicely. I did not taste this wine with food.
