Bought this on a whim because it was $19 (regularly $37, and apparently $45 from the winery). 2013 Napa Cab... everyone and anyone made great juice in 2013, right?! Apparently not. Absolutely unacceptable. I've never returned a corked bottle, but I thought about returning this, and it wasn't corked. The fruit is so hollow and so tired. Overly tannic with a headache-inducing, fake sweetness, all served over a freshly cut 2X4. I wouldn't accept free bottles.

Meh. It takes a wine like this to remind me there really are wines that just aren't to my liking. Flat, hollow and heavily tannic. Pass.
