Ok. Want to dig it, but don't. Potential outweighed by cheap undertones.

Very good alone but makes us want to drink it with cheese. Rich and flavorful.

Very complex with a strong cola & berry finish. My only complaint is that the cork was crumbly & I hate to aerate so that cork crumbs weren't in the wine glasses. For that reason, I don't think I'll buy again.

Bright big dark fruits. Classic cab, good acid, balanced for the most part.

Very rich and dark. Not my favorite, but a solid wine for the value.
