Dona Paula: The Best Deal In Cabernet Sauvignon
This is the best cabernet for under $15 on the market right now.
Oh, you’re still here. What you need more than that? OK.
Dona Paula Cabernet Sauvignon
Mendoza, Argentina
imported by Vineyard Brands ($11-13)
Structure? Got it.
Aroma? Dark fruits, spice, rich
Flavor? Juicy, NOT jammy, with a beginning, middle, and lingering end
Tannin? Soft and balanced
Acidity? Hell yeah. Like it’s Malbec sibling, this Cab’s got a self-cleaning finish that makes it perfect with food. My last glass went smashingly with red wine marinated octupi.

You know, if you just did a wine review a day…I’d never ever read any other wine blog. We’d never leave you. You rock. Happy holidays.

SOLD! You do not lie, woman. This is a kickass bottle. I just begged our manager to put it on the list at our bar.
