Santa Margherita Cabernet Sauvignon 2018
Veneto, ItalySanta Margherita is well known for its pinot grigio, so much so that the two seem to be synonymous sometimes. And yet here is a cabernet sauvignon from the Veneto. The style isn't far removed from the Veneto's more familiar Valpolicella wines. It's a light, juicy red wine with tart red fruits, leafy herbs, and a leesy note. The tannins are negligible, softened by a pinch of sweetness (3 g/L), making this an easy-drinking style best served with a light chill. A fine offering, though I'd be tempted to go with a Valpolicella instead.Tasted: 01 November 2020Tasted by: Geoffrey Moss MWPrices:| BC | $21.00 | 750ml | estimated retail in select private wine shops |
