Wine Enthusiast:  Rated as Very good, may offer outstanding value if the price is right. "Sweet, rich & clean, with molasses, fig & pure berry fruit aromas. Rich & saturated, but balanced, with blackberry, brown sugar & chocolaty flavors. Finishes fairly long, with spice & some complexity. A surprisingly good bargain Cab." Aug 2011 (Advance)

Winery:  "Juicy berry fruit aromas lead into concentrated flavors of raspberries and blackberries. Well-balanced with firm tannins. Hints of vanilla, cocoa and sweet oak appear on the finish."

Wired For Wine:   This Friday we thought we'd bring you a little Spanish bang for your buck winelovers!  The Trumpeter Cabernet Sauvignon is simply delicious, with gorgeous, pure berry fruit, mouthwatering hints of molasses, brown sugar, vanilla, sweet oak, and proud, sturdy tannins.  Serve up your first bottle or two with ham, Manchego and fig tartlets.  Your meal will be off and running instantly...  The rich, balanced nature of this Argentine red is made for all sorts of meats.  We love it with olive and shallot-crusted rack of lamb.  Seared beef tenderloin with Cabrales cheese, brandy and roasted garlic paste will make you forget your troubles, and enjoy the sweet oak and molasses of this Trumpeter.  Grilled Romesco style pork over greens, topped with toasted garlic and almonds, and warm vinaigrette will bring out the tannins in this to-die-for priced ravishing red.  Let 'em blare, winelovers, this Trumpeter deserves the fanfare!
