At $23 this isn't a big "wow" cab from Napa but it damn sure does the job when the girlfriend says she wants something oaky while Netflix-ing. Dark garnet in the glass with huge oak and spice on the nose, somewhat surprising when you taste and it's just a lovely,smooth experience. One of the few times the taste is better than the nose, I find.

Deep ruby, classic Napa. Oaky vanilla notes, blackberry, stewed plum, charcoal and pencil lead. High in alcohol but surprisingly not hot. Good now, will probably be great in ten years for lovers of Napa Cabernets.
