Wine Review: This opaque and pitch-black colored Cabernet Sauvignon from Amici opens with a fragrant black currant and coffee grounds bouquet with hints of cherry cordial, black olive, and violets. On the palate, this wine is full bodied with integrated medium plus acidity. The mouthfeel is balanced, smooth, dense, and concentrated. The flavor profile is a black cherry and blueberry pie blend with notes of vanilla and stone dust. We also detected hints of dried strawberry, oak, and café latte. The finish is dry, and its flavors, acidity, and well-managed dusty tannins are nicely sustained. We would pair this Cab with well-marbled ribeye and a wild mushroom risotto. Enjoy - KWGTP
