Country: US / Family Selection
Variety: Cabernet Sauvignon California
Winery: M. Trinchero / Santa Barbara County
A nicely crafted wine with all the attributes of fine Cabernet: plush black-currant and berry fruit, a dose of vanilla-scented oak, and sage notes. Drinks dry and smooth, with a few tannins to shed. Finishes rough, but pretty good, especially at this giveaway price.
