Tasting - Four Bears Cabernet

Region: Paso Robles, CA
Country: USA

Vintage Cellar Review: 2010 Paso Robles Cabernet Sauvignon is ruby in color and displays aromas of lavender, cedar and raspberry fruit.  Flavors of blackberries and raspberries combined with hints of savory spices coat the palate.  The soft tannins and sweet oak balance lead to a long and lingering finish.


My Review: This wine was enjoyable.  The initial taste of raspberry was followed by a woody aftertaste.  The  aftertaste lingered in the back of my throat for a few moments, I assume this means it does not have a clean finish.  I tasted this wine without food.
