Review: 
On drizly.com, this wine received a 4.7/5 stars.  Although it is red wine, this review recommends chilling this wine in the fridge.  Tastes jammy and smooth and tastes well with cheese.

Wine Folly:
Zinfandel is known for having jammy wines and is originally from Croatia (pg. 189).  Petite Sirah has bold tannins and has black fruit flavors (pg. 147).  Sweet red blends tend to go well with cheeses and dark red meat. 

My Review:
I loved this wine so much I cannot even explain.  I definitely think this was my favorite one I have tried so far.  First off, this bottle caught my eye because of the sparkly label.  Once seeing it was a sweet wine, I decided to try it since it is something new.  I did not pair this with food because it was so sweet I did not feel the need.  I loved the taste and totally agree with the jammy flavors!
