Where'd you try it? Tasting at home with friends
Would you drink it again? At least one more time - I'd love to get more from this wine once I can generally detect more from the wines I'm tasting. The woody/smoothness of this wine is definitely my thing.
Extra thoughts:
This went down a bit like rolling hills. What I mean by that is that it wasn't super complex or dull and flat. I feel like at points it had a distinct flavor and then it simmered down, then peaked again. Interesting... hope you followed that description a bit.
Other reviews:
Chain Bridge Cellars gives us this insight:
"Multiplicity is a ripe, round, friendly wine that offers up ample aromas of red cherry and plum fruit with notes of cocoa butter, chocolate and spice. Then generous flavors of red and black fruits, graphite and a touch of menthol for complexity and lift. Nicely concentrated and softly ripe on the finish. The whole thing reminds you of cookouts at the beach somehow, so toss on some burgers and have a party!"
My rating scale works as such:
1. Never Again
2. If someone else bought it
3. I'd keep it in mind
4. At least one more time
5. Going to get another bottle right NOW!
