2013 Revelry Cabernet Sauvignon

Hi All – I hope you have all had an excellent week! I decided to review a wine suggested to me by my friend, Amy.  Amy and I have had a few glasses of red wine together over the years, so I’ll listen to her suggestion on a cab. She recommended the 2013 Revelry Cabernet Sauvignon. The grapes that make up this wine are from various regions in Washington state. I could smell a slight essence of smoke and, also, tasted it initially. The initial taste then developed into tastes of currant, cherry and black licorice. The black licorice was very slight and really just accented the overall flavors. There’s a lot going on in this wine, but it is still a medium complexity and really nice to enjoy on its own. I kinda sounded professional there, didn’t I? ? Seriously though, I’d recommend this wine. You can find it at Costco for $14.79. Have a great rest of the week and weekend. Enjoy a great wine and great family and friends!
