Winery Review: This Cabernet Sauvignon offers an intense and deep color and lovely aromas of red fruit, pepper, and tobacco. It has smooth tannins, very freshness, and rich fruit, which gives the wine a good balance. Pair with barbecue beef ribs, frilled sea bass, or spaghetti alla Bolognese.
My Review: This red wine was very greeny with a hint of oak. Although it was tannic and left a strange feel on the tongue, the finish was very smooth and it was pretty pleasant. There was also an obvious black pepper component on the palate. I tasted it on its own with no food this time. I think it would smooth out the tannins when it is paired with a meal. I would give this wine an 86.
