5/5
Dry, middle body. Middle taste is not empty, unlike other Cabernet Sauvignons. It’s the best Cabernet Sauvignon wine I’ve ever tasted.

Absolutely a delight to drink, heavy of vanilla and biscuit, almost butter tasting. Middle body of black currant. Would buy again!

Best cabernet sauvignon ever experienced. Strong aroma immediately hits. Typical cabernet sauvignon aroma but full of luxury. Proper tannin and acidity makes this one drinkable as it is. Soft but bold texture. Very enjoyable!
