Alcohol by volume: 15.0%
Price at time of purchase: $19.99 (Costco)
 
Type: Cabernet / Bordeaux

This is an absolutely delicious Cabernet at a super-fair price. French-like in its smokey dark currant and black cherry aromas and flavors, though much more satisfying than most Bordeaux's in its ripeness and texture. Amazingly balanced and pleasurable at its young age. I was astonished to see the alcohol level of 15% as there is not the slightest hint of hotness or harshness. - HK 2009-05-01
