Winemaker notes-
Winemakers at Château Morrisette just couldn’t leave well enough alone. Not content with only grapes, they have crafted a delicious new fruit wine from summer’s bounty of sun-ripened blackberries. One of life’s simple pleasures here in our little part of paradise.
Sweet and smooth, our Blackberry Wine is packed with the vibrant fruitiness of succulent, sun drenched berries. Try it lightly chilled with most any grilled or spicy food. This all-natural wine may contain a harmless sediment.

My review- To the surprise of no one, the nose of this wine was almost all blackberry with a hint of smoke. The taste was almost like blackberry jam, which i really liked. My palate was filled with very rich flavors of blackberries and the tannic structure was weak to moderate. I love blackberries so this wine definitely appealed to me, but someone who does not like berries should avoid this wine.
