Wine Review: 2016 Nighthawk Black Cabernet Sauvignon, Bota Box

A deliciously smoky, dusky-hued lady-Satan, Chilean Cabernet Sauvignon.

It almost tastes like bacon.

Almost, but not quite, so I added some bacon.

Dunking bacon in wine is the new Oreos in milk. Oh yes, I did.

Gluttony at its finest.

For some reason, this varietal is not on the Bota Box website but it is most certainly a Bota Box wine.

Bold, dark fruit flavor, long and smooth finish. Definitely smokey. 13% alcohol, no red wine headache. Great with bacon.
