2005 the Little Penguin Cabernet Sauvignon

Reviewed by on Tuesday, May 16, 2006 on Corkd.com

Full flavor with a smooth aftertaste, this budget Cabernet Sauvignon shouldn't be scoffed at - or at least not by new wine drinkers like myself.

Where to Buy

2004 Forefathers Cabernet Sauvignon
This is sort of a second wine of the respected veteran winemaker, Nick Goldschmidt, who bottles his more expensive brand under his last name. But theres nothing second-rate about the wine.

2001 Parson's Flat Cabernet / Shiraz 750ml
This blend of 65% Shiraz and 35% Cabernet Sauvignon from 10-year old vines cropped remarkably high for the resulting quality (4 - 4.5 tons of fruit per acre) represents a 700-case pleasure bomb. Although it is stunning, I am a little concerned about ... Robert Parker. A Proprietary Blend wine ...

2005 Becker Cabernet Sauvignon Reserve
Big red fruit, cherries, strawberries, plums, a little flint, and red clay. Thin on the spice, big on the fruit. Not much complexity or earthiness to it, but tasty. A Texas favorite!

Merryvale Reserve Napa Cabernet 2003 Rated 90
Wine Enthusiast Review Merryvale's '03 Reserve doesn't quite show the complexity of the Clone Six or Vineyard X bottlings, but then again, it's nowhere near the price. And as rich as it is, it's a comparative bargain. With luxuriously soft tannins, it's opulent in black currant, cocoa and new oak ...

SideJob Cellars Sonoma County Cabernet Sauvignon
While working my one man show for the past year the number one thing I was told by the people I met around the country was that I should produce wines under a ""SideJob Cellars"" label. To me it was just a name that described my answer to my creative ...
