Tasting - Fish Eye Cabernet Sauvignon

Name: Fish Eye Cabernet Sauvignon
Variety: Cabernet Sauvignon
Region: South Eastern Australia
Country: Australia
Year: 2010
Price: $14

Winery Review: Cherry and blackberry with a hint of pepper on the nose. Enjoy this Cab with charboiled cheeseburger with jalapeno poppers. Bratwurst piled high with sauerkraut.

My Review: After tasting two other wines from this winery, I was definitely excited to taste the Cabernet from Fish Eye. I smelled the berry aromas in the wine, but got more of a tropical spice than a pepper on this nose. We tasted this wine with a spicy sausage jambalaya, and absolutely loved the pairing. The wine has a very slight sweetness and a great fruit flavor, so it paired very well with the spice in the food pairing.
