Tasting note:

Vintages Wine Panel: Las Lomas is both organic and Fair Trade certified. The winery is actually a co-op of 240 members who control 2,400 hectares of vineyards. In 1995, a select group of members began growing their grapes organically, and it is their fruit that is used to make this wine. This Cabernet is fruit-forward, round, ripe and ready to drink. This organic wine contains just 12 mg/L of free sulfur. My note: A seriously good wine for those who love ripe dark fruit framed in a solid structure. Excellent balance and style here with full-bodied flavor and length. Aromas of black plums, cassis and graphite with a hint of smoke and dried herbs. Satisfying! Food matches: gourmet hamburgers, pizza, pasta with a rich tomato sauce.
