winemaker's notes:

The 2010 Jester Cabernet Sauvignon is dense purple in color. On the nose, you'll get masses of blueberries, cassis and leather with intense aromas of coffee and mocha. On the palate, it is spicy, lifted and pure, with juicy and savory tannins, richness and elongated length.

alcohol by volume: 14.9%

critical acclaim:

"Deep crimson-purple; uses the Amarone technique pioneered by Joe Grilli in Australia, with 20% of the grapes air-dried for eight weeks before being crushed; it worked for him and does here, adding a dimension of richness to the blackcurrant fruit, and creating a velvety texture."

Deep purple with little tannin to the initial taste. Has some nice fruity undertones and is smooth overall. I had mixed emotions on the first bottle so I ordered 3 more. In the end, I would rate it 88pts. and probably would not order it again.

rating (11/9/2012):

Not too keen on this Cab. The aftertaste isn't pleasant and it's too watery and weak-tasting. Boquet is uninteresting.

I am not a big cab fan but this one is not too heavy and has good undertones.
