Tasting - Slow Press Cabernet Sauvignon

Name: Slow Press
Variety: Cabernet Sauvignon 
Region: Paso Robles, Central Coast, CA
Country: USA
Year: 2016
Price: $12

Winery review: Generous and flavorful, this is one of the best California AVA wines available. It's concentrated and tannic, with medium-full body, a hint of sweetness and layers of dark cherry and plum fruit. Baking spice nuances linger on the finish. Best after 2019. - 91 points - Winemag.com


My review: The slow press cab is one of my favorite wines I have tried to date. On its own it fruity, with a dark oak flavor the lingers in the mouth, very tasty. This wine came in to it's own with the food pairing. When drank with the cheese and meat on crackers, the flavors bloomed and coated my mouth with a luscious umami richness that enhanced all flavors involved. 5/5 would recommend 

Tasted with Parmesan cheese and sopressata on crackers
