  Vanilla on the nose, yet not oaky. Light and fruity. Acidic and tannic. Has a metallic finish that is a bit off putting. Ate with a spinach quiche. Not a keeper.

  타닌은 보통. 뒷맛이 씁쓸한편. 기름진 음식이랑 먹으면 괜찮을수도 있을것 같지만 가벼운 안주에는 잘 안 어울림.

  Retai $13. Under screw cap. 100% Cabernet Sauvignon. There is a ton to like concerning what Domaine Bousquet is doing in the Eco Valley. They are farming organically, putting most of their wines under screw cap, and producing high quality wines for really affordable prices. I would argue that the average weight of their bottles has increased a bit, which is a disturbing trend that more people should care about, but... This Cab checks all of the above boxes. Dark (but short of brooding) with great fruit, spice, and earth on the nose, with a palate that is well-balanced and pleasant. No, this will never be confused with a Napa Cab, but it has no desire to be. For around ten buck? Pretty solid.

  Pretty good, great value. Lighter cab with minimal tannin structure. Fairly fruity nose. Not a showstopper but a great every day dinner wine.

  14.5% alcohol; imported by WISD, LLC, Miami, Florida; screw top, fast legs, medium to dark purple; opened and tasted right away at room temperature (26 degrees C); nose of alcohol, generic citrus, blackberries, gooseberries, blueberries; medium bodied, notes of underripe berries, especially blackberries, with minerals and earth in the background of the long finish; pair with cheeses, preferably soft; as noted by the 9/10/20 reviewer, this wine likely has a bright future if you cellar it for a while; the finish gives subtle hints of good things to come; I'm giving it an 87 for now but will buy another bottle and get back to you, God willing (I'm going on 85), in a couple of years with another report; p.s. I couldn't easily get another bottle, Costco in Palm Beach Gardens was sold out
