District 7 Cabernet Sauvignon

Black fruit and mineral notes that dip a toe into bell pepper. Soft palate, easy drinking, not any green-y notes to the palate. Fine and serviceable Cab.

Central Coast Tasting (San Diego Wine Co.) : 100% C.S. from their Hames Valley & San Lucas Vyds; Aged 12 mos in 25% new AM & 5% new Hungarian oak; 13.5% ABV, 6.3 g/L T.A., & 3.79 pH. N: Creamy oak atop berries P: Med, poss LM, body; NICE, ALMOST swtish frt off-set by a swtishly-tinged astringency which pretty much continues into the LONG finish with a distinct swtness to the dusty tannins Needs/DESERVES a yr or so, then drinking …

Blackfruit and some sulfphur aromas. Palate is very correct. More sulphur to the nose than the palate.

100% Cabernet and 25% oak. Some Hungarian oak to boot. Frresh frutied and juicy with some RS - actually all of them pretty much works it out.

Heavy oak nuance, ripe black fruit. Good for the price.

One dimensional and unremarkable, plus over-oaked, the number one thing that most people hate about Cab Sav wine. Pass...

Very light. Not a lot of flavor.

Dark red violet color; savory, red currant, toast, berry jam nose; medium bodied, red currant, toast, berry jam palate with some balancing acidity; medium-plus finish (13.5% alcohol; screwcap) 85+ points
