Generous upon opening, but dries down nicely after some air. Potent blackberry and anise flavors. The finish is dry and structured with cedar notes. Uncharacteristic of low end, crowed pleasing California Cabernet, and a bargain at $12.

Sweet red berries on the nose with chocolate, sage, metals, coffee, rust and cloves.
13.4% alcohol with nice, long, thin legs.
Thin on the mouth feel.
On the palate, blackberries, vanilla, oak, black pepper and herbs.
Nice finish with soft tannins and black peppercorn with a little burn on the back of the throat.
As it opened up, tannins on the mid palate increased, and tart cherry appears on the finish.
Blend of 78% Cabernet Sauvignon, 14% Petit Verdot, 5% Merlot, 3% Cabernet Franc. Aged for 12 months in french oak.
Nice every day wine that I will have again.
