2019 El Taxi Cabernet Sauvignon
The wine name: El Taxi
El Taxi means “The Taxi” in Spanish. It’s just our way of making it fun to say “Cab” which of course also means taxi in English.
Visual
Deep red and purple hues.
Aroma
Currants, tobacco, chocolate and a hint of pepper.
Taste
Dry with balanced fruit and acidity, moderate tannins with smooth silky mouthfeel and finish.
Barrel: New French Oak, 50% Heavy Toast
El Taxi was aged in French oak barrels and monitored closely to impart a 50% new French oak taste. This foundation gives the wine a luscious blend of spice, vanilla and slight char.
Pairings:
A delicious wine to serve with grilled meats, savory sauces, hardy cheeses and chocolate desserts.
