Martin Ray 2006 Cabernet Sauvignon





Martin Ray 2006 Cabernet Sauvignon, $17.99-$19.99, 89 points, poured core black grading purple/red then a tinged brick-red toward the thin clear wine ring and leggy glass wall.
Smells of cedar, clove, cinnamon, black currant, juniper berry, and sea breezes were quite good.
Full-bodied with good acidity and round soft tannins managed good flavors of cola, plum, black currant, and hints of mulled cooking spices.
Finished well on a warm 14.4% alcohol, warm spice notes, and the trailing palate.

  1. Having never heard of this winery I looked at their website and saw that they are over in Sonoma. Their wines are priced really reasonably...have you tried their rosé?

    1. No, but since I've been expending my wine horizons to include rosé, I'll have to keep a sharp eye out for theirs!
