Felino Vina Cobos (Paul Hobbs)


Felino Vina Cobos (Paul Hobbs) 
Variety:  Cabernet Sauvignon
Region: Mendoza
Country: Argentina
Year: 2009
Price: $10.50 by glass

Winery review: A deep ruby hue accompanies an earthy nose, rich with aromas of fine-grained leather and licorice. The palate is
generous and complex, with intrepid notes of black currant and boysenberry weaved together with graphite and sweet
tobacco. Ripe, plush tannins combine with subtle minerality creating an ideal balance and a lengthy finish.

My review: Overall, I did not like this wine. It was thick and had a strong mid-palate and it was not something I was used to. The aromas from the wine were musty almost and I was not able to try this wine with food.
