Very nice dark purple with some dark cherry and hints of licorice and some hints of smoke. Very smooth and soft pallet of dark fruit and cherrys with crazy soft tannins that makea this a very easy drinking cab.

Good Cab. Cherry and vanilla flavors in a full bodied wine.

I've seen this Cabernet in this unique, square bottle for a while now, and I decided to give it a try.

Ruby red in color with medium intensity and a light red rim.

Not too pronounced on the nose, with blackberries, blueberries, sour cherries, funk, earth, wood, light cloves and black pepper.

Light to Medium-bodied.

On the palate, blueberries, plums, light vannilla, cherries, strawberries, oak, earth and light peppercorn.

Short finish with soft tannins.

Nice gimmic on the bottle shape, but nothing more than an OK, everyday wine. At $16 at Total Wine, I think that it is overpriced.

13.8% alcohol by volume.

Interesting Cabernet Sauvignon, heavy vanilla on the nose, and fruit intense without much structure. On the edge of drinkable for it's vintage. Adult Kool Aid......cherry Vanilla Coke!

Definitely recommend decanting. Vanilla, cherry and white pepper. Admittedly we bought this for the cool bottle which is now on my bottle tree outside. Very smooth. Hubby liked it a lot. It's an easy drinker but lacks the fruit and character that makes me want to purchase another bottle.
