I am tasting this Chateau Andrea Cabernet for the first time and I am in wine-tasting heaven, you might say! This California beauty is full-bodied and ripe with plumminess. The color is deep and dark. The nose is of black currants and black cherries. The tannins are powerful and the finish is lingering and satisifying. I am glad we have three bottles on hand! This is simply delectable!
Tom: This is an interesting cabernet and seems a bit unusual. It has a plummy taste with a hint of vanilla and is not as tannic as some cabernet. All in all, very pleasant.

I have to agree with you both. This is a delightful wine and I will definately stock up on this one.

We have used up our stock and need to get more. This is a good one!

I am looking to buy a case of Forest Park Merlot – Mendocino County – 2005. Can you help?

I’ll see what I can find; meanwhile, one of our astute readers is likely to help, too!

We had Chateau Andrea at our wedding. However, I thought it was Merlot? Am I mistaken?

Hello Phyllis! Perhaps Chateau Andrea also makes a Merlot. We have never seen a Merlot by Chateau Andrea, but it is entirely possible that they do produce one. Did you like it?
