Medium bodied, refreshing Cabernet. Short finish, modestly oaked, and commensurate tannins. Stylistically, there should be more Sonoma cabs offered like this.

The aftertaste is kind of like hot sauce.

Thin and a little bland. Not much going on. I'll drink, but only to save opening another bottle. Wouldn't buy again.
