Rockcliffe Family Cabernet (Washington, 2006)

Category: Cabernet SauvignonEddie @ 10:10 am
This is a Cabernet from Fresh & Easy.  We picked this up one Saturday night and enjoyed it with bruschetta.
$12 from Fresh & Easy.
Three and a Half Trophies
  • Slight aromas of nutmeg and other Christmas spices.
  • Slight hint of cherry in the taste with holiday spices.
  • A bit tart on the finish…a bit like raspberry
  • This wine really conjured up images and feelings of Christmas….Felt like going home to family after being away for a long time and laughing together around a big Christmas dinner…..of course sine it is the middle of the summer and fond memories are all that are left we no longer remember all the Christmas fights over politics and sports with drunk Uncle “Larry”
