2007 Kaiken Mendoza Cabernet Sauvignon

My first cabernet sauvignon of the season is a 2007 Kaiken from the Mendoza region of Argentina that ran me about $13.


Since this is the first one I don't have much to compare it to other than to say it has a lot more body than the pinots I drank last winter and was much more velvety on the tongue.  I will say it didn't overnight well.  I went to drink a 3rd glass the next day and it was just on the verge of being undrinkable so I tossed the rest.

A nice wine in general though to drink with a filet mignon.
