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.

One of my #1 go-to's when I'm in the mood for a cab sav. Smooth and full of flavors. Grab a bottle when you see it, I find that it sells out rather quickly.

Strong notes of blackberry, cinnamon and black peppercorn on the nose. Lovely Ruby tint against light. Light bodies, peppercorn throughout. Acidity is high, tannins have a gradual rolling finish against the tongue.
