High alcohol and good legs on an inky dark cab sauv. One dimensional and completely devoid of structure. New world fruit forward disappointment with strong cherry notes, pepper, and poorly developed tannins. Forgettable in the best way possible.

Could easily mistake this for a $35-$50 bottle of wine. Delicious ad great value!

A little young but worth the investment. A date we hope to meet again soon.

Rich, mellow, low acid, full mouthfeel. Drank with the judge.

Wine spectator. Right and juicy, with the forward profile of dark plum and black berry fruit backed by hints of anise, mocha and singed vanilla. A flash of savory in the background keeps this honest.

Enjoyed this wine at a corporate event. Not a pnp beast, has a bit of finesse and structure. Napa but seems a bit overpriced even sub $30
