Dark ruby in color with a reddish rim.

Full bodied, smooth and bold.

Dry and fruity on the palate with medium acidity.

Showing black fruits, chocolate notes, vanilla, tobacco, cedar, licorice, cola and mocha.

Nice finish with fine grained tannins.

This is a tasty Napa Cabernet Sauvignon. Fruit forward with a simple nose and mild complexity on the palate, with a nice soft mouthfeel.

Good right out of the bottle and better as it opens up and shows some structure. Would benefit from another 3 to 5 years of bottle time.

Good price for a Napa Cabernet.

Aged for 16 months in French oak barrels.

Low alcohol for a Napa Cabernet, which is not something you find too often.

A blend of 94% Cabernet Sauvignon and 6% Merlot.

13.3% alcohol by volume. Wow.

90 points.

$30.
