In case you couldn't tell, this wine went very well in our house. With the bf's parents in town we had a lovely dinner of venison tacos and the wine was gone before dessert was a thought. The Cabernet paired very well with the game meat and spicy salsa. It was on the dry side and very smooth. Dark red, cloudy in color.
I have also gotten a Chardonnay from the Round Hill vineyard that I greatly enjoy. Very dry with a powerful aroma and a beautiful golden color.
From Snooth.com Gregory Dal Piaz:
"Light aromatics are smoky and slightly caramelly with a hard, chemical edge to them and a bit of struck match. Very light and fluid in the mouth with some rustic tannins and a modest amount of red fruit. Not much to this but it’s well made and perfectly acceptable wine, if a bit tough and not particularly varietal. 82 pts"
Freya's Score: 6 -This score could increase if I were to have a proper tasting with concentration. That being said I greatly enjoyed it and many requested a second glass, I would purchase again at this price.
Cost: ~$10 Southern Missouri, bought from the Macadoodle's location in Pineville, MO. This is a great deal if you purchase it with the fantastic Macadoodle's case of wine deal. 10% off all bottles of wine not already on sale!
