Tasting-Purple Paws Cabernet Sauvignon


 

Name: Purple Paws Cabernet Sauvignon
Variety: 100% Cabernet Sauvignon

Region: Lodi, California

Country: USA

Year: 2012
Price: $12.99


Winery Review: A heavy wine, and the heaviest among the Purple Paws collection. Contain classic notes of California Cabernet Sauvignon. Tastes of cloves, olives, and oak with a fruity finish.


My Review: This is a very dry and heavy wine. The oak and clove tastes were apparent overall very smoky compared to the other wines tasted. At the end I was overcome with tastes of dark cherry. This wine was a little too smoky for my taste, but in general a good and full bodied wine. I believe if this wine was paired with steak it would be very complemented. 

Food?:  I did not pair with food.
