We tasted fresh herbs, ripe berries, strawberry jam, not too be confused with sweetness! This cabernet displayed delicate tannis and smoothness. On the other hand, it's a little flat and flabby, and lacking some body.
The heat from the alcohol was prominent, which is something we can't look passed!
Mirassou cabernet is not a bad wine! It offers some great aromas and flavors. Its downfalls are minor, especially at this price point ($10). This is a serviceable wine, making it a fine choice for parties, too--we just wouldn't stock it on our cellar.
