Moonstone 2009 Westside Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon (Paso Robles)

Country: US / Westside Reserve
Variety: Cabernet Sauvignon California
Winery: Moonstone / Paso Robles

Dry, tannic and ripe, with flavors of black currant, raisin and a coating of spicy oak. The tannins are rich and thick and high alcohol gives this wine a slight burn, but richly sauced barbecue flavors balance that out.
