The deeply colored 2005 Cabernet Sauvignon Antiguas Reservas offers toast, spice box, cedar, and black currant scents. This is followed by a spicy, ripe, firm wine with layers of flavor. With very good depth and a long finish, this superb value should evolve for several more years but is hard to resist now.
Kudos to Cousino-Macul for this significant upgrade to their portfolio. Importer: Billington Imports, www.billingtonwines.com
