Norm's Tasting Notes: 2015 Chateau Ste. Michelle Cab. Sau.

2015 Chateau Ste. Michelle Indian Wells Cabernet Sauvignon

#04-19

I love Cabernet Sauvignon, and even in the winter, I can be seen outside with the grill burning a thick steak to go along with a nice bottle of Cab inside. You know the saying, "a Slab and a Cab". I know it's not quite poetry, but it's nearly scripture!

We opened a bottle of 2015 Chateau Ste. Michelle Indian Wells Cab to go with our latest winter steak burn, which happened to be a New York Strip. The nose on this Cab was powerful with scents of cherry and other dark fruit. The flavors swirled through the glass in a tango of black cherry, dark berries and touch of plum. This is a big, thick, fruit wine, with enough oak in the finish to carry it through the night. The taste begs for another sip! The alcohol content is 14.5% and Norm's score is 90.

The Indian Wells Cab is great with a Slab, and would make a good companion for Italian veal dishes as well.

score: 90
price: $16 - $19
