This is a two for one post. I saw a winery offering Muscadine and Noble wine. I therefore got both and because they had a three bottle minimum order the Norton I will be reviewing next week. I then realized that Muscadine is a family of grapes of which Noble is one. I really just ended up with two Nobles, but luckily they are made differently. One is a sweet while the other is dry. I have been looking for this at other wineries so that I might try a dry Concord or Catawba (as opposed to the sickeningly sweet versions I've had so far).
Hinnant Family Vineyards, Tar Heel Red (Noble)
color: a dark rose, or a light red
aroma: syrup, strawberry, raspberry
taste: a slightly sweet grape flavor but nowhere near cloying. Overall it had a light fruity taste with grape and strawberry.
rating: average
Hinnant Family Vineyards, Noble
color: cherry
aroma: alot less syrup, strawberry
taste: this was similar in overall flavor to the Tar Heel Red but alot less sweet. The strawberry was still there but less grape. Overall, still a fruity wine and no real tannin.
rating: average
