Wine Review: This midnight purple colored Cabernet Sauvignon based red blend from VGS is fantastic! It opens with a fragrant and inviting black currant and brownie batter bouquet with hints of pine needles and menthol. On the palate, this wine is full bodied with integrated medium plus acidity. The mouthfeel is a terrific, silky smooth, seamless, and very well-balanced. The flavor profile is a delicious blackberry and black licorice blend with notes of cocoa and graphite. We also detected hints of acai berry, cola, and toasted oak. The finish is dry, and its flavors, acidity, and well-managed dusty tannins build-up and last for a very very long time. We would decant this wine for a few hours before pairing this very impressive red blend with well-marbled ribeye steak. Enjoy - KWGTP
