Kiepersol Estates Winery
Texas Cabernet Sauvignon
Black currant, blackberry, black pepper. An abundance of oak, perhaps too much, but I still really like this wine.

1 person found it helpfulMar 10th, 2014I wasn't expecting much, given that I had a few people who were there when this was bottled all tell me that it was past its prime. It has been stored at 55 degrees since purchase. Served up pop and pour, this wine gave me a very nice surprise. After 10 minutes, the bouquet and front of this wine we're quite enjoyable. Definitely a dark expression with a little bit of plum, earthy blackberry, cumin, and a middle that had a little bit of green pepper. Finishes still a bit spicy, and actually quite robust. I am thoroughly impressed with this wine. Made by a legendary Texas winemaker who has recently passed, this offering goes to show you what can truly be made from grapes grown not more than two hours east of the DFW metroplex! I am not sure this one really has much additional holding potential. So drink now and enjoy!
