1998 Forman Cabernet Sauvignon

Community Tasting Note

Likes this wine:

Saturday, February 29, 2020 - young deepish red color, on the nose cassis, blackberries, plums, bell pepper and spicy oak, on the palate smooth and balanced mid-weight Cabernet fruit nearing maturity, a very firm structure with a long finish, the oak a noticeable presence on the palate but not excessive, smooth and seamless fruit punctuated with spice notes, for all its sternness and understatement- I found this quite satisfying in its way, a wine not best suited for a tasting but rather for savoring over a hearty steak, a great CA Cabernet with time in hand.

****+, ready to drink with many years of life left
