Alamos Cabernet Sauvignon 2004 Argentina
A recommendation from one of the staff at Majestic (www.majestic.co.uk), this is a very easy drinking Cab Sauv for under a fiver. It looks just like a CS should - deep red and thick and juicy and it smells full of warm sun dried fruit, as you'd expect, since it comes from Mendoza.
Little acid or tannin, this is a wine for drinking now, although it would probably keep for a year or two before it starts a downward spiral.
2004 was an excellent year for Argentinian reds and this is a great example.
8/10
