Yosemite Road Cabernet Sauvignon NV

Yosemite Road Cabernet Sauvignon is a budget-friendly wine with mixed reviews. Some appreciate its rich, inky red color and aromas of black fruit, eucalyptus, and herbs, while others find it lacking. It's noted for its medium body, smooth finish, and practicality with a screw cap. While some enjoy its balance and value, others describe it as a 'disaster.'

Displaying a deep garnet hue, this Cabernet Sauvignon opens with a bouquet of ripe blackcurrant, cassis, and a hint of cedar, underscored by subtle notes of dark chocolate and graphite. The palate is robust, with firm tannins providing a structured backbone, while flavors of blackberry and plum are complemented by a touch of vanilla from well-integrated oak. The wine's medium acidity ensures balance, leading to a lingering finish with echoes of black pepper and a whisper of dried herbs. This wine exemplifies a classic New World style, offering immediate appeal and moderate aging potential.
