A superlative cocktail wine, this Cabernet demonstrates the unique terroir of Clarksburg: medium bodied, slightly gritty tannins, and a touch of citric acidity. Flavors are more blueberry and blackberry than cherry. It is easy drinking and a great cocktail wine.

Fairly fruity, mostly blackberry notes. Drinkable, but doesn't stand out. Forgettable. Not bad, but I wouldn't search it out.

Far better than the 2013 regular. Nice tannin mix and very drinkable.

I enjoyed this, very lush feel, lingering piney after notes.

Interesting on the first glass and much better on the second. Dark and fruity at the same time. We'd buy it again.

Plums, cherries, black pepper, and some lively tannins. A young cab but quite drinkable.

Tasty cab, great value. Not overly complex, but very drinkable. Will buy again. Thank you David Akiyoshi, well done.

For the value, one of the best Cabs I've had. Great big, bold red!
