This wine kept calling to me from the cellar and I couldn't resist. A wonderful Mexican Cabernet Sauvignon and sadly my last bottle. I see the 2016's are now available to buy so here's hoping 2016 is as good or better than 2015. Previous tasting notes apply.

This wine is a deep garnet in color with a med(+) intensity of aroma. The nose is composed of leather, overripe strawberries, cedar, smoked meat, red apple skin, rose pedals, medicinal notes, and tomato. This is a dry wine with med acidity, med tannin, med(+) alcohol, med(+) body, a med(+) flavor intensity, and a long finish. I taste, tomato, red plum, overripe strawberries, and red bell pepper. Overall, this wine is of very good quality and should be drunk now--not suitable for further ageing.

excellent Mexican Gran Reserva Cab Sauv. Compares favorably to a Napa Valley Cab at twice the price. Full bodied, well balanced, 13.9% abv. Blackberries, dark plum, chocolate, licorice. Strong finish. This is an excellent vintage

Terrible Wine. would never buy again nor would I ever drink it. Not even good for cooking by the way I didn’t buy it my son Dan did.

Reminds me of some Chilean cabs before they got much better
