Tom and Melody’s wine blog

Melody is still on the road, Trigger is still brooding in wait for her, and I’m tasting a Lindemans Bin 45 Cabernet Sauvignon 2006. It is pleasant tasting, although it comes off a bit as cab lite, not strikingly tannic, more merlot like. A strong fruit bouquet, but not quite as strong in actual taste. All in all, a pleasant, New-World-tasting wine, but not one that you would give to someone and say, “This is what cabernet sauvignon tastes like.” Instead, I would give someone last evening’s Bin 50 Shiraz to show off Lindemans in its best light.
