Tasting: Estrella Cabernet Sauvignon 2014

Name: Estrella Cabernet Sauvignon 2014
Variety: Cabernet Sauvinon
Region: Napa, California
Country: USA
Year: 2014
Price: Frontline $17, Sale $5.95

Winery Review: Bright medium dark garnet color. Fruity, creamy, attractive aromas and flavors of berry and cherry custard pies, watermelon, and chocolate and floral honey with a silky, vibrant, fruity medium body and a smooth, interesting, medium-length spiced blueberries and cherries and vanilla custard finish with soft tannins and light oak. A very smooth, charming, and fruity cabernet crowd pleaser.


My Review: This wine smelled like raisins. I definitely received the berry and cherry scents, but I think watermelon is a bit of a stretch from the winery review. The taste was strong on the blueberries and darker fruits. The aftertaste did taste silky and I did get hints of vanilla. I liked this fruity wine and would try it again!

I did not taste this wine with food.
