Tasting- Michel Gassier Cabernet Sauvignon

Name: Michel Gassier Cabernet Sauvignon
Variety: 100% Cabernet Sauvignon
Region: Rhone Valley
Country: France
Year: 2010
Price: $15.00

Winery review: "Hailing from the warm south of France and made with old vines, this richly intense Cabernet offers concentrated flavors of plum, black cherry, lavender, and notes of cigar box."

My review: This beautiful red caught my eye with an intriguing label and a low price tag. Its a rich red wine with nice legs. Strong plum, cherry, currant, and lavender are present in the mouthwatering nose and the taste is similar in respect. This is a medium-bodied wine with a little bit of heat, although it was pleasant. I enjoyed this wine so much that I quickly snatched another bottle.
