Tasting: Vertex


Name: Vertex
Variety: 100% Cabernet Sauvignon
Region: Virginia
Country: USA
Year: 2010
Price: $20.00
Winery Review: Dry red, rich with black currant flavors and French oak notes, pairs well with rosemary walnuts. This bold and unassuming Cabernet Sauvignon with rich tannins and intense plum flavors, reaches a peak of spiciness.  It can be paired with bold meats and rich pasta meals.
My Review: This is the most okay/tannic wine they have. It is aged in French oak for 11 months. It smelled a lot like oak. It was very oaky tasting as well. It has a slightly spicy finish. It also had some cherry in the nose.
