Winery Review: A tribute to coastal California's distinguished reputation for fine wines, this Cabernet Sauvignon embraces ripe, fruit-forward aromas of blackberries, dark raspberries and a hint of earthy terroir. The tannins are soft and the mature berry flavors are evident throughout the lingering finish. In true California style, enjoy this wine with a peppercorn sirloin or a grilled blue cheese burger
My Review: Color is a pretty dark red. Lots of black cherry smells followed by very oaky and wood scents. When tasting the berry really bursts through and overtakes any other flavor. It's A LOT of berry. Finishes a little on the acidic side. Overall a well-rounded wine but wouldn't pay the full $15 for it. Glad to have found it on sale.
I tasted this wine while eating beef, noodle and vegetable soup.
