Diablo Creek Cabernet Sauvignon 2006


Vineyard: Diablo Creek

Type: Cabernet Sauvignon
Vintage: 2006
Alcohol Content: 13.0%

Purchased: 12/26/08 - Vons, Pasadena, CA
Cost: $4.99
Rating: 3.75

After taking the first sip of this wine, I asked myself, "Is my lip bleeding?" Not a good start in my opinion. Maybe a good purchase for those of you who are iron-deficient.

I was hoping to find a whole new selection at the Vons while visiting Southern California for the holidays, but instead I found that Vons is owned by Safeway and have a similar if not identical wine selection. Oh well. Guess I'll have to go farther and wider in order to find new markets of cheap wine.
