Tasting- Four Bears Cabernet

Name: Four Bears Cabernet
Variety: 80% Cabernet Sauvignon, 20% Petite Sirah
Region: Paso Robles, California
Country: USA
Year: 2010
Price: $14.95

Shop Review: 2010 Paso Robles Cabernet Sauvignon is ruby in color and displays aromas of lavender, cedar and raspberry fruit.  Flavors of blackberries and raspberries combined with hints of savory spices coat the palate.  The soft tannins and sweet oak balance lead to a long and lingering finish. 


My Review: This wine tasted deep and rich.  I felt it was well-balanced and the fruit flavors were complemented by notes of wood and spices.  It had a slight burn going down, and an aftertaste that stayed with me for awhile.
I did not have food with this wine.
