Vintage Cellar review: 95% Cabernet Sauvignon with 5% Viognier this certified organic winery produces outstanding quality at reasonable prices offering classic Cabernet flavors of fresh herb, olive, cedar and cassis. Focused and intense, with a charming rustic side and broad tannins that firm up on the finish.
My review: This Cabernet is pleasantly wooded and very aromatic with strong blackberry and blackcurrant themes on the nose. It is very dry, tannic, acidic, and heavy in body as would be expected of a Cabernet Sauvignon. The body is well-structured and focused on the balance of acidity and tannins. It lingers around for a bit with a nice mouth-drying finish.
I had this wine without food.
