Wine 35: Carmenere

I actually had two bottles of this varietal, but I only took pictures of one. You will just have to trust me. Unfortunately, I didn't write down the name of the first one, so I won't include a review for it. You are left with seconds. The wine I am reviewing was a semi parting gift from a friend. I also did not get all the information from this label so I am guessing the vintage.

Root 1, 2008 Carmenere
color: garnet
aroma: cranberry, lemon?
taste: It had a light cranberry taste with a bit of cinnamon. There was also some tobacco and oak, especially in the aftertaste.
rating: average
