South Coast Winery, South Coast (California) 2017

May 26, 2021

By Rich Cook

 Winemaker Jon McPherson brings us this value driven tribute to Bordeaux at a wallet friendly price.  It’s got what you might expect from a French bottle costing twice as much – blackberry, damp earth, brown spice, sturdy tannins and a long finish.  Well done!  Contains 37% Cabernet Sauvignon, 25% Merlot, 23% Petit Verdot, 12% Malbec and 3% Carmenere.
