Tasting Cabernet Sauvignon


Name: Cabernet Sauvignon
Variety: Cabernet Sauvignon
Region: Roanoke, VA
Country: USA
Price: $22.00

Winery Review: Our Cabs set new marks in Virginia for ripeness and tannin maturity. harvested in late October or early November, they spend 40 months in barrel before bottling. These dark iuscious wines show dark cherry fruit, cedar, spice in layers with a 60 finish. Really special Cabernets! Set these wines down for 10 years if you want to see how a great wine improves with age.

What I taste: It was dry, and a bit sour. I love the smell of cheery, and ceder but the spice was a bit rough to take in.
