The 2020 Caretaker Paso Robles Cabernet Sauvignon opens with a pleasing aroma of cherry, black cherry, spice and a little leather.
Tasting reveals a smooth, easy drinking Cab. It is a bit thin perhaps but still hard not to like and not sweet like a lot of wines in this price range. It’s worth the 10 bucks.
It kind of fizzles a bit on the dry finish but overall it’s still a good find. You might also want to check out review of the Caretaker Pinot Noir from Santa Maria Valley.
