Soft or tired, or needing more cellar time, depends on your perspective. Reduced Blueberry-Pomegranate, mocha jam, if that's a thing...only light barrel notes are at the tail of the finish.

Despite the big oaky nose and softer than expected feel, this wine expresses typical fruit of dark berries and pomegranates. Although I would like some more depth and some more structure, this wine is a relative excellent buy from Napa.

Dark ruby in color with medium intensity and a light red rim.
Nice and fruity nose with blackberries, blueberries, plums, cherries, black currants, oak, vanilla and peppercorn.
Medium to full bodied.
Fruity yet tart on the palate, with blueberries, strawberries, red currants, plums, wood, vanilla, licorice and spices.
Medium plus in length on the finish, with powerful, yet smooth tannins and peppercorn.
Nice everyday Cabernet from Napa Valley but not too complex.
14.1% alcohol by volume.
