Yellow Bird Cabernet Sauvignon - 2006 (2.5/5)

When I walked into my local wine shop this week I noticed that there was a new Yellow Bird on sale. The label and region was different from the terrible Yellow Bird Merlot I tried a few months ago. The Merlot was from California and this Cabernet was from Australia.

When I was getting rung up the manager told me that Yellow Bird changed their juice distributor. That would explain the regional difference. They also changed their logo design (I’m guessing) to reflect the change of juice and taste.

I had my hesitations toward trying this considering that the other Yellow Bird was terrible. The Cabernet had quite a bit of flavor and was good enough to try again. It’s not my favorite yet, but worth a shot.
