Another Value from South America

Bodega Jacques Francois Lurton
Valle de Uco – Mendoza
2003 Cabernet Sauvignon
$7.99

The aroma is big and fruity, like cherry cordials and Bubbilicious grape bubble gum. The palate is tight, sharp, tart and tangy. This one has plenty of tannins and acidity. After the palate opens, a pleasing mint flavor predominates. We enjoyed it, but this one might be tough to handle if you are used to the less acidic Napa fruit bombs.
