Carson Peak 2002

[VouvrayHead]

A small label from Boeger, this Cab comes from El Dorado in (Eastern?) California.
Lately I've only been posting notes on wines that I think are pretty exceptional deals, and this is certainly in that category.
One of the 2 or 3 best under $15 Cabs I've tasted...
Big robust fruit and herbal notes are present... Dark cherry and berry flavors lead into dark spice and chocolate notes with soft enough but still sturdy tannins. I like it a lot now, but it's got enough acidity and tannin to continue to improve its already excellent balance.
It was aged for 2 years before release and it's only $12.99

Worth looking around for.

Sounds like a weeeener.
