| Chateau/Producer: | Duplin | | Wine Name: | Black River Red | | Country: | United States | | State: | N.C. | | Region: | Eastern, N.C. | | Wine Score: | 85 | | Notes: | A sweet wine that blends Muscadine and Catawba grapes. The color is of dark rose. I am not knowledgable about wines overall. The taste is sweet,but not to sweet. It can be sipped alone without any problem. I would suggest that on varieties of wine on this site that Muscadine and Scuppernong be added. These grapes grow only in a limited area,but to me produce a delious sipping wine. | | Tasting Date: | 2009-04-25 | | Varietal: | Muscadine | | Production Notes: | No further information that I know. | | Additional Notes: | Duplin Wine Cellars is located in Duplin County, N.C. I often eat sharp chedar cheese with this wine. Also, chicken would go well with the wine. I think this wine is great by itself. Or, I do not see any reason that this wine would not complement any type of food. | | Source: | Lowe's Food www.duplinwinery.com 800-774-9634 |
