(Château Fontanès Cabernet Sauvignon les traverses de Fontanes) Slightly cloudy dark red violet color; minerally, berry, blackberry nose with sense of some carbonic maceration; tasty, Cali Cab-like cassis, tart berry and menthol palate with structure; medium finish (good value at $12)

Nice bottle for the money. A lighter earthier Cabernet that is made mostly with Biodynamic fruit. good stuff. half earth, half fruit, complexity and long finish for a bottle at this price. Lynch imported.
