Angélica Zapata Cabernet Sauvignon 2007 is an elegant and complex wine. Of a deep red ruby colour, the nose is packed with ripe red cherry and plum, blackcurrant and spicy notes of clove and thyme. On the palate, it is a complex, intense, well-structured wine, with soft, round, long-lingering tannins. Finishes with delicate toast and vanilla flavors.
