Community Tasting Note

96 Points

Wednesday, October 14, 2015 - Wineberserkers cabernet offline (The Palace, Mission, SF): Aromatic nose with deep black fruits, blackberry, black currant, slight chocolate, has deep dark density on the nose, some minerals; palate is full bodied, excellent acid, deep black fruit, very dense; medium-long finish. This is superb but lacks some of the bordelaise complexity that monte bello can show, but it is a superb balanced california cabernet with decades ahead of it. Still young. 95-96++
