Happy Birthday Neal! Drank next to the 2014 Cade. More expressive nose than the former and the lightness carries through to the palate. That being said, it lacks the concentration of the Cade and seems a touch shallow in comparison. They call this baby PlumpJack...whatever. Fun to try them back to back. Better value than the Cade.

A blend of 88% Cabernet Sauvignon and 12% Merlot, dark red with red fruit and herb spice aromas. On the palate cherry, raspberry and blackberry flavors with underlying sweetness and fine tannins. Lingering finish ending with espresso and cacao notes.

Nice dinner wine, lots of tannins even though it is the second day. Good flavor. Nice nose

Perfect Goldilocks wine - jammy but not TOO jammy, tannic but not... you get the idea. Totally understand the other comments on its relatively weak finish and a certain lack of complexity but in terms of drinkability, it scores high.

Very fruity, not tannic and ready to drink out of the bottle. Finishes quite nicely.
