Castoro Cellars
Estate Grown Paso Robles Cabernet Sauvignon



I like their big tannic Reserve reds to lay down for five years plus. But what about their regular reds? Heavily pigmented purple-red in color. Briar, leather, cherry notes in nose. Touch of barnyard, mint-eucalyptus in nose as well. Black currant and cherry flavors, mild tannins initially, dry finish on palate. Plum flavor emerges with time. Skin astringency moderate; sharp chewy tannins emerge after 30 minutes, but soften two hours later. Red fruit finish and aftertaste. Well made for a basic-entry Cabernet; certainly there are more complex and costly Central Coast Cabernets but this is a solid choice in the mid price points. Better than I expected, tastes even better with time or decanting

Deep ruby color. Aromas of dark berries, tobacco pipe and oak. Rich, black cherries on the palate, plum and black tea finish.

For a Costco bought BIG bottle? ... it's pretty darn good. Use it as a table wine or just if you want a quick wine swig.
