So the 97pt rating from Decanter is crazy talk. This is very good but not 97 pt good. Smooth dark fruit, vanilla, and subtle tobacco flavors. Definitely worth the $17 price tag.

2017 vintage cab Sauv. Full bodied red with hints of blackberries. Great with beef and tomato based sauces.

It was ok. A light cab. May not buy again or maybe if the price is right.

Still young. Low alcohol (13.5%) with black and red fruit and hint of mint.

Ok wine. Decanter rating of 97 is not accurate or at least not what I was expecting.
