Barra
Reserve Mendocino Cabernet Sauvignon
Mendocino, North Coast, California, USA
Dark ruby in color with a wide reddish rim, and a strong fruity nose.
Full bodied and bold with medium plus acidity.
Dry and very fruity on the palate with mild complexity.
Showing blackberries, plums, raspberries, cooked cherries, spices, cedar, vanilla, licorice, chocolates, coffee, peppercorn, mocha and cola.
Tangy finish with medium tannins and raspberries.
This is a young Cabernet Sauvignon from Mendocino County, but already good by itself as a sipping wine.
Nicely balanced, rich and extracted. Tangy and interesting.
Needs an hour to open up, so be patient.
Showing lots of black fruits with chocolate notes right out of the bottle, and once it opens up, more red fruits come in to play. Tasty.
Will continue to age nicely in the next 5 to 7 years. Would be nice to revisit it in 3 years.
Organic Cabernet Sauvignon grapes were handpicked and aged in (30% new) French Oak barrels for 18 months.
14.5% alcohol by volume.
90 points.
$28.
