Seven Oaks Paso Robles Cabernet Sauvignon

This is not a good example of Cab from Paso Robles.

Solid everyday drinking wine. Black currant and oak with a hint of vanilla.

Baseline to judge other wines

J. Lohr Cabernet - Paso

Stores for 10 years. Wow. It was good. We were surprised.

This one was soft but firm eight years after the vintage. It held up though I'm not sure I recognize such great improvement that would justify the effort. This is a reliably accessible selection from any vintage. Cheery.

Budget bottle that needed drinking. No better place than inlaws house for xmas.

2011 in Sept 30 2017. Very smooth with broad flavour, great body. Pairing nicely with old cheese and BBQ steak.
