Tasting - Purple Paws Cabernet Sauvignon

Name: Purple Paws Cabernet Sauvignon Non Vintage
Variety: Cabernet Sauvignon
Region: Lodi, California
Country: USA
Year: Non-Vintage
Price: $15.00

Shop Review: If a Cabernet can be smooth and creamy, this one is. It offers plenty of fruit flavors, smooth tannins that coat the mouth in a good way, plus a plush texture that keeps it from being even a bit harsh. With light body, a soft mouthfeel and lingering finish, there's much to like.

My Review: This wine was a medium, purple-red color. It had an aroma of pepper which made my nose slightly itchy. Upon tasting, I got a strong taste of leather and more pepper. I did not like that the taste lingered long after; it seemed to take over the entire palate and mouth. This is certainly a wine that should be had with a steak dinner. This was tasted by itself, without food.
