Lamadrid Cabernet Sauvignon 2009

PR - B

RA - A

We liked this one. Its not very distinct on the nose and it isn't much of a Cabernet either, but there is a certain effervescent quality to it and it just pops at you. The finish is smooth, the flavor profile is a bit lean for a cab, but hints of dark berries keep it interesting. It might get a bit more personality with another year or two, but as it stands, the thing we kept going back for was the slight buzz on the taste buds, its a great effect, very unusual and unique. So while it doesn't score very high as a  Cabernet, its interesting enough to get high marks as a great budget wine.

Price - 14.99$
