Deep ruby red. A bit bland on the nose, a bit toasty and stewed raspberries. Even for only 13.5% alcohol it seems to have a little bit of heat. Light tannins (4/10) and light bodied. A touch paperish on the palate with some bramble berries. A little singular. Short finish. Drink now.

Fine tannins makes this big wine much more approachable. Nice long finish. A cab I'd reach for if a friend was looking to grow their palate.

Outstanding value for money. Very well balanced. Soft and approachable, and easy-drinking, but not simple or forgettable.

I'm thinking black cherry with some spice. Very balanced and smooth. 2012 vintage at Trader Joes for $10. Easy drinking for the price, so I don't feel guilty opening a bottle for myself.

Very berry finish. This wine needs time to breath to appreciate the full fullness of the wine. For the price it drinks well.

Light but with a nice aftertaste. Really refreshing after a long day of hiking. Will buy again
