2006 California Cabernet Sauvignon Wine Tasting - A Study of 20 Year-old Cabernet Sauvignon

Let us celebrate the occasion with wine and sweet words.

Plautus

We like sweet words, but we like wine better and this year we are studying wines that are 20, 30, and 40 years of age.  

This is true scientific research that we are doing here at the Wine Watch, checking each bottle to see when the best time to consume for the most drinking pleasure.  It's hard work but we are willing to sacrifice our body for our wine drinking people.  These wines are all from the outstanding 2006 vintage from California and they are now at 20 years of age which is what many would consider to be fully mature. 

The 2006 vintage was outstanding in many places on Earth for wine, but I remember being most excited about the wines of Tuscany, Piedmont and Northern California.

We have a few things in the store from 2006 but right now so I have included them on this offering. for those of you that can’t make this tasting, so check out the 2006’s they are now in their glory years but will drink nicely for many more decades if you like vintage wines.

There are only 14 spaces available at this event and the fee for this tasting which includes dinner is $295 + tax, for reservations call 954-523-9463 or e-mail andy@winewatch.com.
