Wine Review: This dark ruby colored Cabernet Sauvignon from Chappellet opens with fragrant black cherry bouquet with a hint of oak and blueberry. On the palate, this wine is medium bodied, balanced and approachable. The flavor profile is tasty blueberry with notes of black cherry and mild vanilla oak. I also detected hints of plum in the background. The finish is dry and its moderate tannins are sticky and linger. This Cab would pair well with a ribeye steak. Enjoy – Ken
