All 5 Bordeaux grapes + Syrah. It's like a 19th C. Claret, but waaaay fruitier. (I presume) Big, fun, and complex for a Cali fruit bomb.

Never heard of this. Someone asked me to taste it and call out a price point. Very juicy. Loads of ripe red fruit with a dash of spiced black fruit. Even for Sonoma, this was a touch light in body. Has around 6% Syrah and for some reason I think it was easy to pick up...there was an underripe blackberry and black pepper spice towards the end. Overall, a nice, simple, fruit forward Cab. Evidently, they are neighbors with Silver Oak and retail is $25. Solid for the price.

Great cab dominant blend, you can tell right away it's a cab. If you love cab and are looking for something a bit different get this!
Nose: blue and black berries with a bit of leather
Mouth: again dark berries with some plum and maybe a some tobacco?
