Castle Rock Cabernet Sauvignon 2009 Reserve

16 Dec

B1

Grape                              : Cabernet Sauvignon
Country of Origin : United States
Region                           : California, Napa Valley
Vintage                          : 20o9
Alcoholic Content : 14.5%

Damage to my purse : Bought from a wine retailer at S$48.

Characteristic :
Vivid purple (in colour) and medium to full bodied.  On the nose, it has aromas of dark fruits with slight sharpness that tickled the senses.  Great forward taste of dark cherry, with hints of chocolate and oak.  Smooth, with mellow tannins and long finishing of cassis.

MY TAKE : This is one good cabernet sauvignon.
