Winery Review: Dark, ruby red with aromas of cherries, black currant, and dark plums. This Cabernet Sauvignon is very concentrated, rich in flavor, perfectly balanced, and boasts a satisfying and lingering finish. Marries well with robust dishes of cheese, pasta, and red beef. (Winemaker's Notes)
My Review: This is actually one of my favorite wines ever. This is the wine that I would drink before taking this class as it is just a really well balanced product in my eyes. First there are smells of blackberry and cherry just singing through this wine. Additionally a dark red color that invites complexity. The wine tastes marvelous with nice tannins with the dark berry flavors present. The amazing creamy and smooth feel to this wine is like no other I have ever tasted before. It is quite incredible with a dry finish that lingers. This wine is fabulous with a nice red steak that is medium rare or hearty pasta dishes.
