Tasting - Novelty Hill Cabernet Sauvignon

Novelty Hill
Variety: Cabernet Sauvignon
Price: $28.95
Year: 2008
Region: Columbia Valley, Washington State
Country: USA

Shop Review: Bright and expressive, offering a velvety mouthful of raspberry, cherry, blackberry and sage flavors, finishing with a hint of smoke. Shows depth and persistence.

My Review: This was my favorite wine of the tasting.  If it did not have such a high price tag for my college budget, I definitely would have walked out with several bottles.  It has received consistently high ratings from Wine Spectator in the low 90's.  The dynamic flavors of dark fruit tasted very smooth on the palate.
