Girard - Cabernet Sauvignon

Name: Girard
Variety: Cabernet Sauvignon
Region: Napa Valley (California)
Country: USA
Year: 2009
Price: $30.00 -> $14.95

Winery Review: Showcases the forward, ripe fruit and fine, polished tannins for which the Napa Valley is most prized. The initial aromatic notes are of ripe red fruit and spicy oak. The flavors on the lush palate follow suit, while the finish underscores the high quality of the fruit from which the wine was made. Enjoy it now, but know that this Cabernet will continue to improve with proper aging for another 8 to 12 years.

My Review: This is a very excellent wine. The color is very dark, and intriguing. When I smelled this wine I could almost tell by the flavors that this would be great with wine. The flavors of the wines are very good. It has a hint of dry towards the end. I think this wine would pair well with steaks, in fact I really want to try this wine with steak and would recommend it to anyone that needs a wine to go with steak.
