Chateau Morrisette Winery Website Notes:
"Production Notes
This is an apple based wine with blackberry flavors.
Winemaker Notes
Imagine, thick & dark blackberry pie with vibrant aromas that fill the glass to the brim. Literally no different than having a mouthful of ripe blackberries right from the basket.
Food Pairing Notes
Serve chilled, between 49-52ºF. It's perfectly sweet aperitif to be paired with the likes of cheese or better yet, barbecue"
My Review: This is one of the most delicious wines I have ever had. My boyfriend actually got me this for Valentine's Day after I had mentioned I wanted to try a blackberry flavored wine, and we just got around to tasting it. It really tasted like you were eating a handful of ripe blackberries, I tasted some hints of blueberries and even some cherry? Right from the start you could smell the delicious sweetness. The first glass was amazing, but after the first it tends to be a little too sweet for me. We tried it with chocolate, which is why I think the sweetness was a little too overpowering. I feel like this wine would be an amazing combo in the summer with a nice juicy burger. Overall I would definitely recommend, and want to try more of Chateau Morrisette's Orchard Series.
