Wine Folly: Wine folly says the cabernet sauvignon has a rich flavor and high tannin content. The world's most popular wine is a natural cross between cabernet franc and sauvignon blanc.
Online review: I’m simply floored by the aromas coming from this wine… it’s wonderful, however only moderate in intensity. Cherry and blackberry make up the fruit, but there is also a nice dusty, herbal quality to this wine that I would describe as tomato leaf, tobacco and leather. The palate has plenty of fruit flavors, like blackberry, cherry and plum. I can’t say it extraordinary complexity beyond the fruit on the palate, but it’s still a very enjoyable wine. The tannins are soft and pleasing. The bottom line, this is a great wine for the price. Very enjoyable. (cheapwineratings.com)
My review: It smelled very dark and chocolatey/ a deep berry. It had a slight perfume smell. It tasted woody and had a dark berry taste. It was surprisingly not bitter and slightly sweet. It was very affordable. It tasted very good!
