Palate Press Wine of the Week – 2005 Amista Cabernet Sauvignon

July 17, 2010 by Palate Press  
Filed under Tasting Notes

If you are tired of over-the-top Cabernet and are looking for something with less tannin, you will appreciate this release. Red fruit of blackberry, blackcurrant, plum clove, and berry on the nose. Soft mouth feel, excellent balance, and a pleasant lingering finish on the palate. Layers of complexity. Could be laid down a few more years but certainly approachable and highly drinkable now.
