Bottle of Novelty Hill Cabernet Sauvignon 2008 |
Cabernet Sauvignon 2008
Blend: Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Cabernet Franc
Washington, USA
28.95 USD
A classic, full-bodied Cabernet with dark fruit aromas and a hint of spice. Generous layers of fresh currant, black cherry and ripe blackberry gain concentration across the palate before leaving a balanced, richly-textured impression that lasts.
(Mike Januik, Winemaker)
I tried this wine at the Vintage Cellar yesterday. It had a velvety layer to the nose and some hints of fruit, which I couldn't place. I also got hints of wood (oak-ish) and a lot of chocolate. The taste was robust, yet smooth. It had a lot going on but had a nice balance to it. At the time, I couldn't really place any of the particular fruit flavors in the taste. Seemed to be an off
tasting day for me.
