It’s
interesting to see how well certain wines did in different regions of Texas
during the fantastic 2017 year. This Cab
was sourced from Marallan Oak Vineyard which is in the eastern part of the
Texas Hill Country AVA. After that initial pour, you will note a bit of spice
on the nose in addition to rich dark fruit. After doing a swirl, sip and
repeat, those notes of blueberries and cherries start to envelop your taste
buds. Yes, there is a little bit of plum
in there too for this medium bodied red wine.
The tannins are about a half notch below moderate, and the finish is
smooth. Very nicely done. Cheers!
Wine Of The Moment is just that. A moment of trying out a new bottle of wine and sharing our thoughts and impressions. There is no planned wine bottle that is to be opened or set time that it will be tasted. It is what ever just happens to be opened...for the moment. On occasion, we may also post our feedback on new wineries that we have visited as well as unique cheeses. So, pull up your own plate of cheese, crackers, and fruit and enjoy these discussions.
