Nice robust Cabernet. Had a strange flavor on day one that I could not put my finger on..2nd day was much better. Bold dark fruit, some smoke, smooth and not to many tannins. Picked up for $30 in Dec 2018, may have to hunt for some more. 2015 vintage.

Moving on from Arc Bridal to Scooters... since Pacific Eating House isn’t on the map...
Full bodied.... but not jammy.... just right.
