Tasting- Atlas Cumbres Cabernet Sauvignon

Name: Atlas Cumbres
Variety: Cabernet Sauvignon
Region:?
Country: Argentina
Year: 2010
Price: $ 6.95

Winery Review: Intense red color with violet highlights, with clean, fresh and complex aromas
of berries, plums, figs and pepper. Strong personality is in perfect balance with a medium body and pleasant
tannins. Ideal for: red meats, cheeses and strong sauces.

Personal Review: One the nose I got the overpowering smell of pepper mixed in with subtle hints of plums and berries. The taste was peppery and the mid-palate was very oaky.( The oak monster did come out). The finish was very dry and tannic. Overall, this wine was to big for me. I did not enjoy the dry finish.
