2008 Sledgehammer Cabernet Sauvignon, California $15
Like the name says this is a powerful Cabernet, pounding layers of flavor in each sip. It starts with a nose of blackberry and clove and evolves into a full bodied tasting experience. Layers of plum, black currant, and spice are complimented with notes of dark chocolate and sage. There is a terrific balance of acidity and fruit with just right amount of tannins for a touch of dryness. A perfect match for a grilled ribeye or prime rib.
