Hunter Chaps Winery
California Cabernet Sauvignon
Dark ruby in color with medium intensity and a red rim.
Fruity nose with blueberries, blackberries, black currants, red candy, cherries, vanilla, light oak, herbs, licorice, earth, spices and black pepper.
Medium-bodied with medium acidity, smooth with nice legs.
Dry and fruity on the palate with blueberries, black currants, vanilla, cherries, licorice, light vegetables, pencil lead, earth, spices, herbs and peppercorn.
Medium plus in finish with very soft tannins and raspberries.
This Cabernet Sauvignon from California is very light. Well balanced with mild complexity, but nothing special, if you're looking for a Cabernet. A good sipping wine and good with food.
This is a Cabernet Sauvignon for the Pinot Noir lover.
13.5% alcohol by volume.
87 Points.

Beautiful ruby pomegranate color. Spicy at first but not too dry with a fruity flavor. Great for sipping.

Feb 29th, 2020Beautiful deep Ruby color. Legs 10/10. Very subtle dark fruit on the nose, though I can't identify any particular fruit. Smells sweetly oaky. A little spicy when it first hits the palette, with a smooth, lingering dark finish. Subtle throughout. Good!

Mar 1st, 2019On the nose, tobacco immediate leaps out at me, then eucalyptus, then pencil lead. Milk chocolate and pencil lead on the palette, with a touch of violets and eucalyptus. Nicely done. One doesn't often find such a Bordeaux-like quality in such an reasonably priced California cab.
