Tasting - Atlas Cumbres Cabernet Sauvignon

I did not pair this wine with food

Name: Atlas Cumbres Cabernet Sauvignon
Variety: Cabernet Sauvignon
Region: N/A
Country: Argentina
Year: N/A
Price: $15, on sale for $6.95

Professional Notes: Intense red color with violet highlights, with clean, fresh and complex aromas of berries, plums, figs and pepper. Strong personality is in perfect balance with a medium body and pleasant tannins. Ideal for: red meats, cheeses and strong sauces.
My Review: This was an earthy red wine with hints of brown on the edges of the liquid. It had a plum nose. The alcohol came through as well; this wine had 13.9% ABV (I guessed 13.5%). It had quite the big flavor. This was a full bodied, tannic red wine. I enjoyed it and would recommend it.
