ALTA COLLECTION CABERNET SAUVIGNON 2013 Mendoza |
Vintage Assessments Tasting Note |
Producer |
TAPIZ |
Fairly deep intense purple colour. Attractive, refined, fairly intense, slightly spicy, ripe plum-cassis nose with some gentle cedary notes. Dry, medium to medium-full bodied, well structured, harmonious, quite dense, very slightly smoky, warm ripe plum-cherry-cassis flavours with a lingering, cedary, fairly high acid finish. Has 14.3% alcohol and 5 g/L residual sugar. Unfortunately, the second bottle was very slightly corked. The recommended best buy 2011 (**+) was released on April 18, 2015 at $18.95. |

TASTING NOTE: Beautiful and solid with toasted oak, cedar and dried fruits. Full body, firm tannins and a savory finish. Needs time to soften. Better in 2017. Score - 92 (James Suckling, jamessuckling.com, June 2, 2015) |
