Souverain (Chateau) North Coast 2016 Cabernet Sauvignon, $9.99-$12.99, 90 points, poured almost a Shiraz purple/red, a touch pinker, with a broad clear wine ring and moderate glass draping.
Aromatically floral with black currants, a bit of cedar, and underbrush (quite nice).
Full round body was supported by good acidity and a firm underlayment of tannin.
Flavors of chocolate and violets lit-up the dark fruitiness.
Finished long on black licorice, plum, and a well balanced 13.9% alcohol.
Paired fine with my manicotti and meatballs.
By far the best Souverain Cab. I've tasted.
