If you're a regular Budget Vino reader, you know that I really like the Dancing Bull Zinfandel. In fact, it's one of my top choices. Yesterday, I had the opportunity to try the company's Cabernet Sauvignon offering. Lets just say, it's good, but it's not great.
Here's some context around my Dancing Bull Cab experience.
I was at a 4th of July barbecue at my friends Ivan and Alison's place. Their little daughter was playing away in her kiddie pool, and the grill was going strong. As we indulged in pretty much every type of meat you can imagine, there was a general craving for some wine. Thinking that a Cabernet Sauvignon would pair perfectly with the grilled meat, we agreed that the Dancing Bull Cab was our best option. The wine did compliment the food, but it left a bit to be desired. It lacked character and left us all a little unimpressed. It's not that it was bad, it just wasn't anything any of us would buy again.
If you're in a bind, this isn't a bad option. If you have a lot of choice, you might want to avoid this one.
Recommendation: Consider buying it




We are big fans of Dancing Bull Zin. For the price, it cannot be beat! We agree, not real happy with the Cab. We pair the Zin with our favorite pizza!
Not to get off course, the Sauvignon Blanc was not that hot either. Stick with Dancing Bull Zin!
