Wine Review: This cloudy deep ruby colored Cabernet Sauvignon opens with a black currant, vanilla, and cola bouquet with hints of pencil lead and boysenberry. On the palate, this wine is medium bodied with medium acidity. The mouthfeel is balanced, round, and juicy. The flavor profile is a black currant and toasted coconut blend with notes of red plum and boysenberry. We also detected hints of coffee and bittersweet chocolate. The finish is dry and its moderate refined tannins build-up and stick around for a while. The Tasting Panel would pair this Cab with New York strip steak. Enjoy – KWGTP

Winemaker Notes: With grapes coming from sixty-year-old vines, Pascual Toso "Alta" Cabernet Sauvignon has a nose and palate redolent of boysenberry and raspberry fruit, as well as vanilla, spices and chocolate. It is a complex, yet well-balanced wine – elegant in structure with gentle tannins and a lingering finish.
