Famiglia Bianchi, Cabernet Sauvignon 2007, a great red from San Rafael


Famiglia Bianchi, Cabernet Sauvignon 2007, By Bodega Bianchi, USD 14

A CS from San Rafael Valley, South Mendoza.
Beautiful and round, with balanced fruits, chocolate, and roasted red bell peppers. Wide middle palate of boysenberries and black & red cherries with good (long enough) aftertaste. A mature red with red brownish color ,transparent and bright. Probably reaching its best. It may go better somewhere the 4 to 6 years after born. A 91 points CS and a great value.

  1. I tasted today same vintage and it went pretty well. Like 91-92 points, ripe and very attractive. Quite a value for below 15 bucks showing a great San Rafael Valley Cabernet Sauvignon worth keeping track every vintage and cellaring.
