Tasting Velvet Crush Red Blend

Velvet Crush Red Blend
Name: Velvet Crush
Variety: Red Blend
Region: California
Country: United States
Year: 2012
Price: $18

Wine Review: Velvety smooth texture just like its name.  Soft tannins and lush dark fruit character.  Cabernet sauvignon and petite sirah bring backbone and character, while the merlot balances out the blend for a soft, smooth texture. (thewinebar.com)

My Review: As with the others before it, this wine was kind of bland in that it didn’t have anything exciting going on.  It was not too sharp or acidic and had some fruity undertones.  It was a very drinkable red, especially as someone who does not like reds very much at all.

Food: I did not have this wine with food.
