2005 Cellar 8 Cabernet Savignon

This is a great 'house wine' to keep around. My friends and I are always on the look out for the "perfect $10.00 bottle of wine" and the Cellar 8 varietals are all pretty close to this. Personally, I like the Zin best, but I'm partial to Zins anyway. This one is rich, with some tannins, but not too much and a fair amount of mouth-feel to it for an inexpensive wine.

Very full, mouthy, biting and chocolately. Has a heavy, chunky feel in your mouth, but is fairly smooth going down.

Zac: Easy drinking, simple. On the lighter side, and therefore comes off a bit sweet. A good value wine. 82

Beth: I can't taste anything because my tongue is on fire from the giardiniera. Leathery, dry. I don't like it that much. It's not horrible. 80

Not bad for an inexpensive red. Good for sharing with friends who aren't wine drinkers, and don't know what to get for various tastes.
