Cocodrilo Corte Mendoza Cabernet Sauvignon Blend
Mendoza, Cuyo, Argentina
Very soft and light and delicate. Perfume and almost floral flavors, berries and flor de jaimaca tea. I was expecting a boulder expression and a stronger wine, but it almost came across this sweet and clone more than savory and nuanced.

A Paul Hobbs Argentinian Bordeaux style red. Blend of Cabernet Sauvignon (61%), Cabernet Franc (24%) and Malbec (15%). Blend of different vineyards. Deep ruby/purple color. Dark fruit (plums and blackberry) on the nose with plenty of purple flower and “green” aromas. The palate also features dark fruit (along with blueberry flavors) with a distinct note of pyrazine and more subtle hints of dark chocolate, sweet baking spices and a bit of graphite. Full bodied and quite a long finish. Silky tannins. Part of the North Shore House Wine Pairing Dinner on March 9, 2024.
