Sample Image Only Michael and David Winery 'Freakshow' Cabernet Sauv 2016
“Quickly becoming one of Michael David’s most sought-after wines, this brute of a Cab is midnight in color and medium in body. A myriad of French oak influenced aromas fill your glass, accompanied by toasted hazelnuts and blackberry cobbler. Flavors of ripe Mission figs and hints of clove and cinnamon give way to velvety tannins, balanced acidity and dark ripe fruits.” ~Winery Notes

Freakshow Cabernet Sauv
"Rich and tasty, compares favorably to cab sauvs that sell for much higher prices"
High ABV for sure. A bit hot.
"Great wine ,decent oak, alchohol sort of mutes any fruit till very end."
Sweet and very dry
"I am actually from this area, well Sacramento County. I go to Napa, Sonoma and Lodi areas for wine tasting the later being closer. This cab is a bit on the sweet side yet VERY dry. Sonoma reds are the best especially compared to Lodi wines. Lodi is good but Sonoma is known for reds. There are better cabs at lower price points. BUT if you like sweet and dry then this is for you"
