On my latest wine run, I decided to try an inexpensive Cab that the store (Total Wines) said was phenomenal; this was it.

I really don't know what to say except for 'wow' as this wine has a very deep purple color, an arresting nose, and a taste consisting of coffee and dark fruits.  The wine is very smooth and the finish, while not too long, drops off nicely but lasts for about twenty seconds.  This wine would be a perfect staple for parties as well as just sharing it with friends or for an intimate moment with someone special.

Try it, before it's gone.

Our Mission: The Black Winer strives to expose African Americans [and others] to wines, without the flair, stuffiness, and airs of elitism and snobbery that you get from sommeliers and high level wine enthusiasts. We believe in finding something that you like the taste of, outside of the basic brands that you have been force-fed over the years through a combination of ethnically targeted advertising, and what people in your family have historically been drinking.
