Simi Cabernet Sauvignon Alexander Valley 2005 wine

Presence of blackcherry with garnet rim and rich blackberry/black cherry bouquet with notes of green pepper and fruity black licorice.

Palate is finessed with rich dark fruit, integrated structure, smoke, dark berries. fleeting mint and eucalyptus and a smokey finish. this is apretty tasty cab and well made. I paid $22 for it in Los Angeles at a Trader Joes and am grilling filet mignon at present to go with it. Raise a glass to my new grand daughter which is why I am in LA.
