2004 rodney strong sonoma county cabernet sauvignon

the bottom line - a light fruit forward cab with balanced oak. the bitter tannic finish is a problem.

alcohol - 13.8%
residual sugar - .02%
total acid - .60 g/100 ml
final pH - 3.54
blend - 93% cabernet sauvignon, with merlot and cabernet franc

aroma - oaky, cherry and dark fruit.
flavor -lively cherry fruit and a nice acid on the pallet. moderate and balanced fruity, oaky finish but unripe bitter tannins ruin the finish.
price - $15.99
verdict - 84
