Cabernet Sauvignon – 2012; Bending Branch Winery; Comfort, Texas

What a surprise and what a treat to have! This “old” Texas red wine is not only drinking well but still has a lot of life left to it.  Sourced from Newsom Vineyards of the Texas High Plains AVA, it features prominent notes of black cherries and currant, accompanied by some raspberries and plums. There is some “lightening” of the color, but honestly it is not really significant. Sip and savor this beast for every drop it’s worth and relish those hints of smoke and tobacco. As you sip this bottle through the night, it does open up to more wonderful flavors to excite your tastebuds. Yes, Texas red wines can age well, and this fabulous vintage is a testament to that. Cheers!
