Thurston Wolfe "Teacher" Cabernet Sauvignon, $25
Nose: Black Olives, sliced peppers, maple/brown sugar
Palate: silky smooth, lighter than expected. With a smoky maple quality, dark juicy cherries, cassis, and a light chocolate note.
I am a fan of their Dr. Wolfe Family Red wine, so I wanted to try out their Cabernet. Though I think it has a nice aroma and flavor, it lacks the tannins/"umphf" I expect from a Cabernet Sauvignon. It is very smooth and almost too silky for my liking. My apologies to Stan Clarke, of whom this wine is named for.
