Saturday night we tasted some of this and thought it was terrific. Now I find out how cheap it is and need to find some.
"2007 Turn Four Cabernet Sauvignon
September 2, 2009 by quake
So Bennett Lane does some awesome wine – Maximus, etc. and an awesome $99 Cabernet Sauvignon that we tried at a recent tasting. But here’s a perfect example of “follow the winemaker” – they also have this badass Cab right here at $18 that knocked our socks off, meaning that we went through the tasting and this one still held up as a standout. And when it comes in at $18, it qualifies for a review here.
Just when you thought an honest Napa Cab could not be had sub $20, here comes the Turn Four.
Inky dark ruby intense red.
Black & red cherries and other berries on the nose. Twizzler!
Chocolate-covered cherries and licorice passes into unobtrusive elegant tannins."
