2008 Ciceron Cabernet Sauvignon. France. YouMe Town. 650yen

4 out of 5

This wine is a good value at just 650 yen. It’s certainly better than the 2007 Ginestet Brodeaux fraud or the Clear and Dry misnomer. It’s by no means perfect (or even very good) but it does have a coherent leather and earth taste and leaves nice tannin caulk on the tongue.

I’d drink this with a steak or something really peppery and like tonkotsu ramen or Korean food. For some reason it reminds me of Jennifer Love Hewitt and Jimmy Carter.
