Objectively this is an 88 point cab, but given that I am having it with an amazing meal in a private cabana on the beach in Cancun for my daughters’ 16th birthday I rate it 90 :-)

Aug 9th, 2015I liked it but it does not taste like a cabernet sauvignon so I can only give it a minimum score for ‘like.’ More like a zinfandel.
