Raspberry and chocolate on this fruity little number. Slightly angular.

Really really very good. Could be a juicy house wine. In my house of course, not yours.

Nice for the price. Pleasant nose; medium body; dark cherry cola, vanilla, and cigar give way to a balanced, lightly tannic finish. Yum.

Light nose, decent pallet and back to a light finish for a Napa Cab.

Good mouth feel. Chocolate and soft. Fruitier than anticipated but good all rounder. Seems to be opening up with more after 30

Pretty light cab with some spice and fruit and sweet vanilla.

What can I say, this was really underwhelming. This Napa Cab has typical aromas of blackberry, currant, vanilla and cigar smoke. The tannins were so integrated they basically disappeared. I kept swirling and saying, "this is just so... flabby!" Did not stand up to my porterhouse steak. Not the worst wine, but not nearly as good as the Shiraz I rated before from the same producer. Not worth the $20 price tag.
