2019 vintage. Very light colour for Cabernet Sauvignon. A little rubbery on the nose. Medium-bodied, simple fruit, spicy finish.

This wine was served at a crab feast fundraiser event. I thought it was a palatable cab and would indulge again. Simple and not offensive.

Like this but not as a cab. It drinks much more like a Zinfandel or primitivo. It’s sweeter than I usually like but it’s not overly sweet and very pleasant. Easy to drink. Will def be getting this in the rotation.
