Some people like to taunt me. So friends Len and Faye dropped in with this wine, a Cabernet and awaited my response. The area is pretty cool and although it gets very hot days, if it was my place I would not be growing Cab. It has a nice green pepper/cassis nose. But it was not over the top green pepper/herbaceous. The year had a pretty cool lead up to vintage so this is a pretty good start. The palate had the same fruit plus a nice kick of dusty oak. Palate is long and the Cab flavour is not over the top. It was OK before food but with food it was even better. So if they can do a clean wine like this in a cool year how do they go in warmer years? Over to you Winoramistas.
