2014 The Show Cabernet Sauvignon

Dark in color with a mild red berry nose. On the mid palate the wine displays some red berries along with some strong herbal notes, maybe even green pepper. There’s noticeable sweetness. On the lighter side of medium in length the fine is definitely more fruit forward with minimal tannins and acidity. This is not a great cab, I would give it an 87-88. In some ways it reminded me of a Zinf. Not bad enough to return the bottle but if I had more I would take them back.
