Fortress, Sonoma County (California) Cabernet Sauvignon 2016

May 27, 2019

By Michael Apstein

 The name describes the wine.  Big and bold, the tannins are suave, which makes it fine to drink now.  Its ripeness imparts a hint of sweetness in the finish.  It would be a good choice for highly flavored grilled beef or lamb, even in barbeque sauce.
