Domaine Bousquet Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon 2012

Domaine Bousquet Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon 2012 is a wine from Mendoza, Argentina.

85% Cabernet Sauvignon, 15% Malbec.
Ruby color with garnet hue. 
Although Cabernet Sauvignon is the dominant grape for this wine, it has more red fruits such as Raspberry and Strawberry than dark fruits. Ripe. Jammy. 
Coffee candy like oak and aroma of Violet. 
The ripeness of the fruits and the high level of alcohol make this wine taste almost sweet.
With vacuum stopper and refrigeration, this wine tasted still good next day.
I believe it was under $20. Good quality for this price.

We had this wine with curry (Japanese style sweet and spicy curry rice).
I didn't plan to pair these, but it actually wasn't so bad.
