Tasting - Atlas Cumbres

Name:  Atlas Cumbres
Variety:  Cabernet Sauvignon
Region:  Mendoza
Country:  Argentina
Year:  2010
Price:  $15.00

Winery review:  Intense red color with violet highlights, with clean, fresh and complex aromas of berries, plums, figs and pepper. Strong personality is in perfect balance with a medium body and pleasant tannins. Ideal for: red meats, cheeses and strong sauces.

My review:  This deep red-colored wine has a prune/berry-like and peppery nose, with hints of tobacco. On the palate, the wine is medium-bodied with tannins. Flavors of red fruit and tart come through, along with hints of smoke and pepper; a little hot on the finish as well.


Food:  Did not have with food
