Cabernet Sauvignon, Non-California, South Africa, Under $10

Review: 2013 Douglas Green Cabernet Sauvignon

by  • 

It’s warm, it’s fruity, it’s spicy–everything you want in a cheap cab.

The 2013 Douglas Green Cabernet Sauvignon has lingering flavors of what is that, raisin? I was pleased with the smoothness of the wine, which I sipped at a pre-concert picnic with some friends.

For the price, I’d buy it again.
