Akiyoshi
Clarksburg Cabernet Sauvignon
Clarksburg, Central Valley, California, USA
2014 vintage. Lower acidity than I'd expect from a cab, which is just fine by me. Slightly sweeter than I'd hoped - distractingly so. Medium bodied nonetheless, with just the right tannin. Plums.

Mr. Akiyoshi continues to impress with this medium bodied cocktail Cabernet. Fresh blueberry and subtle blackberry flavors mingle over a bright smooth mouthfeel reminiscent of cider.

I like it!

Not too dry for a Cabernet. It is a little sweet but just barely. This is my first of this type of wine, and it is not bad.
