2008 Tenor Cabernet Sauvignon

This is a very excellent cabernet that takes you on the ride of your life.   It’s like catching a wave at just right moment and having it deliver you ashore perfectly balanced so that you can continue your adventure. Due in part to its robust color, you might think that this wine would behave more like a Bordeaux and command your attention on presentation alone. The presentation is amazing; but what grabs my attention is how this wine tells its unique story through the different flavors you taste along the way.  Yes; there are big dark fruits like plums, blackcurrants accompanied by dark spices to start with and they together to bring this cabernet to its peak.  But, it doesn’t stop there.  Just as you reach the top it is the vanilla and crème de cassis that bring this beauty home.  The finish is so unexpected and welcoming at the same time. It leaves you wanting another glass!  This wine will age very well over time.
