Caballero de la Cepa, Cabernet Sauvignon 2009 oak, acceptable even not a typical mendoza´s value



Caballero de la Cepa, Cabernet Sauvignon Oak 2009, By Finca Flichman, USD 9

 
Basic Cab with hardly any virtue other than barely drinkable. Some forrest red & black cherries mix balanced with a affordable peppery note.Good alcohol and enough acidity backup. A hint of smoke from oak contact somehow. Acceptable red but I wound´t look twice for it at the shelves. A 83 points barely worth the price to pay. It may stand alone for 4 years giving the tannins. Not a typical Mendoza´s value.
