Wade was kind enough to send me a bottle of his Black Currant wine today to sample to see if I want to make this. After reading all the post here regarding black currants, a couple of time I was tempted to get a couple of cans and try it.......... Well......... The temptation has been permanently put to rest!
This wine is beyond awesome, it borders on the indescribable. Sometimes when you taste a wine, the second sip is slightly different than the first, third different from the second, not this wine. It has a very forward Black Currant taste that is very sharp and tart, butsweet on the back of the tongue that prevents that pucker, and blend flavors very well in the mouth. The after taste is very plummy with a hint of pepper, tannins and body are unparalleled. From my first pour and swirl of the glass, legs formed on the side of the glassimmediately, very thick, clingy legs.
I tried to get a close up of the body of this wine, but this picture doesn't do it justice.
Wade....., GREAT JOB!
You have a winner here, and will have to do this one again with a tutorial for the rest of us, omitting not one move in your process of making this wine.Edited by: jobe05
