Vintage Cellar Shop Tag Review: The 2011 Tilia Cabernet Sauvignon is sourced and vinified in exactly the same way as the Merlot and Bonarda. It has a ripe, dark cherry and blueberry scented bouquet with touches of graphite and a faint hint of apricot blossom. The palate is medium-bodied with a ripe, generous entry, crisp acidity, and very pure graphite-tinged fruit towards the elegant, persistent finish.
My review: A nice cabernet sauvignon. Nice nose of predominantly cherry with perhaps a background of plum. I did not find the advertised acidity to be overly crisp. The finish is mellow, but not particularly distinctive. I had some of this wine alone and with cheese. The cheese is a nice complement to the fruit noses present.
