Bear Flag Wines Cabernet Sauvignon 2016 Review
At a decent price this wine is a good idea for a large party, or if you are gazing at the shelves for a last minute pick-up. It has intense oak and vanilla notes that dominate the wine. There is a slight mocha vibe going on, but the alcohol delivers the dominating hot and sweet note. Not really a wine club wine, but a good addition to a wine table at a get together.
