2009 Tamaya Cabernet Sauvignon Reserva


Taste: 4/5
Value: 5/5
Price: $10
A $10 Cab? Really! Apparently great values really do come out of Chile, Limari Valley to be exact. Located at the foothills of the Andes mountains and adjacent to the most arid desert in the world, the Atacama, with cooling fog from the Pacific.
A bouquet of red ripe fruits, dried herbs and fine spicy oak, this wine is juicy with a lot of texture, and the mouth is firm and powerful. Other varietals from this vineyard include: Chardonnay, Viognier, Sauvignon Blanc, Merot, Carmenere, Syrah and Sangiovese.
