Inexpensive everyday cab. Light, notes of berry... Nice finish. Great with steak or burgers.

A decent Cab Sav, especially for the price. Bold ripe red fruits, slightly oaky, good depth to it. Enjoyable with steak and just drinking on its own.

Nice and balanced Cabernet Sauvignon from South Africa. Had it with Boutheina and Tim in Addis Abeba. Paired it with penne with anchovies and olives and caprese

Cheap and very decent tasting wine. Not too dry. Great wine for a weekly night at home.

Hey fam! Let you in on a secret: this is how 9$ wines crush 40$+ wines without effort. Got this little guy at Whole Foods with the intention of making mulled wine, but it showed better than that Thorn we had the other day. Nose: fresh mint, yogurt, almond milk; palate: blackberry, currants, gentle tannins and clean acidity; finish: grassy with a hint of sweetness. This young South African cab is lively, fun, and worth every penny. As mulled wine, I’ll give this 8.6. Mulled Cabernet is fucking delicious.

Blackberry and black current aroma. Dry with a very clammy feel. Forest leaves aroma. Not smooth leaves a film on teeth. Slight tarteness. Tastes cheap. Retail cost £7.50 cost £5. Prefer others at this price.
