KWV 2005 Cabernet Sauvignon
While not a classic cabernet, it offers good tension, balance and depth for the price. Expect raspberry-currant, spice and herbaceous (dill) notes on the nose and finish. Mid-weight, fairly tannic and dry. Good length. Ready to drink now, whereas many five-year-old cabs would be too tannic. LCBO 22004
