Wine Review: This dark purple wine opens with a strong blackberry liquor like bouquet. On the palate, this medium bodied wine is velvety and has strong black fruit flavors. The finish is dry, tannic, and a bit brief. The panel felt this wine will appeal to folks that enjoy port wines. Enjoy – KWGTP

Winemaker Notes: Rich dark ruby. Beautifully expressive nose hinting toasty oak with forthcoming elements of rich dark cherry and chocolate. Surprisingly confident ripeness overflowing with rich berries. Wonderfully comfortable weight that rolls over the palate with a wave of velvet texture. Steaks, any grilled meats, beef tenderloin, or an eclectic cheese tray.

Buy it: Use 1000 Corks to find stores that sell Cabernet Sauvignon.
