Tonight I opened a bottle of Beringer, Founders Estate, Cabernet Sauvignon 2005. This is a inexpensive 8.99 bottle of wine..described on the back as a rich full bodied Cab...NOT....It was thin and although had some of the berry taste like the other more expensive Beringers..it lacked any full body and had a tiny taste of vanilla spice. I served it with grilled Beet Flaten Ribs, Whole clove Garlic Mashed Potatoes, an Italian Arugula Salad with toasted pine nuts and Parmesan. I drank it...but it truly lacked. It just tasted like watered down wine..I kept taking bigger mouthfuls to try and fill my taste buds up but to no avail....Oh well the ribs and salad were good...
