Tasting - "Atlas Cumbres Cabernet Sauvignon"

NameAtlas Cumbres Cabernet Sauvignon
Variety: Cabernet Sauvignon
Region: N/A
Country: Argentina
Year: 2010
Price: $15 (sale" $6.95)

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."The Vintage Cellar

My Review: Dark fruits, cherries, and cranberries on the nose, not overpowering at all, very nicely balanced aroma.  The taste was that of dark fruits, berries, cherries, and plumbs, with a little hint of dairy or cheese on the finish.  It also had a nice woody aspect to it, not overly oaky, but just nice hints.  This wine was a very well-balanced and nice-tasting wine.  I would buy again.
