When my mom buys $6 wine from Publix to cook with I see it as an opportunity to tell the world whether it’s worth drinking or not. This one is a definite no. It’s a 2011 vintage California Cabernet Sauvignon Woodbridge wine by Robert Mondavi and it smells better than it tastes. The aroma is promising with notes of dark fruit like plum and black cherry. Then you taste it and feel tricked. It’s very bitter, sharp, high in tannins with a dry mouth after taste. It gets easier to drink the more you sip but not by much.
