Famiglia Bianchi, Cabernet Sauvignon 2003, a beauty from the `south oasis´

Famiglia Bianchi Cabernet Sauvignon 2003, Bodega Valentin Bianchi,USD 18

Beautiful Cab from San Rafael Valley south of Mendoza (the `south oasis´) with a good value

component. Balanced fruits with nice acidity and alcohol keeping the attractiveness alive.

From the start off you see a deep red and a nice nose.The palate is more expressive at the end

with dark fruits and smoke/choco stuff. Quite attractive. I´ll go 90 points on this good value 7 years after born and probably living its last 1-2 years.
