Montes Aplha Cab Sauv 2008

My fav cab sauv for under a tenner, or maybe £20...

Big, bold and brash with mint, fruit, oak all in a full on style. A class above any aussie stuff i have had for the price. It may have a slightly sour finish and taste very young, but this grips your senses like no other. This wine is about as reserved as a coked up stripper.

Eat with big dishes and red meats. I can personally vouch for religous experiences , drinking it with......

Beef Madras.
Shepherds pie.
Spag Bog.
Roast beef/lamb sunday lunch.
Delivery pizzas.


10/10. If you have a remote interest in big new world reds, you should be well pleased at 8.50 a bottle.
