WENTE "Southern Hills" Cabernet Sauvignon Central Coast 2021

 

A luxuriant deep, dark purple hue with aromas of tight blackberry compote with a spring floral bouquet.

Palate--An angular acidic first impression which I wasn't expecting. Fruit forward as one would expect and too immature to really enjoy what's there.  Never-the-less this is a well made, inexpensive cabernet which is underpriced, for what's there. If you have the space and the patience, this could yield big rewards with another 2-3 years of aging. 

I am pairing with charcoal grilled "bistro steaks" and it will be perfect.  Listed at $17, I paid $12 for it which is a bargain so raise a glass!
