An everyday cab, honestly good value for under $15. It’s basic with few dimensions, but try and rate your wines based off their price. This has heavy dark chocolate, vanilla, and blackberry jam scents. A touch of tobacco too. Missing any major qualifying tasting notes other than cherry and more jam. Medium bodied but quite dry. After drinking, it leaves the taste buds quickly.

This is a robust, rich, and dark Cabernet, with thick tannins and jammy plum and red currant fruits. The structure is very mineral and gritty.

"Didn't like initially. Strong alcohol smell. Got better over time, but not in for another" -A, summarized

Smooth and medium bodied, this Cabernet is a perfect cocktail wine: easy drinking, creamy mouthfeel, milk chocolate flavors with just a hint of cherry to@the finish.

With R—another great Millier. Some would say “it’s just very GOOD, ya know?”
