Blackberry, vanilla bean, cedar, cola, and overwhelming sweet mocha/lumberyard that eventually subsides. Solid overall intensity and balance.

Good for the price. Seemed very inky to me...not a stellar bottle of cab, but not bad. I would like to try the other Trader Joe wines.

Big nose. Big, fruit forward wine. Still plummy and raisiny. Still holding up well unlike a lit of the other Platinums. Was a terrific value. My last bottle.

KWN Wine 10. Caramel nose , fruit-forward, plummy and raisiny. Huge fruit. Fun. Played similarly to Wine #5 which ended up being the Fleur de Fonplegade.

Full and rich. Strong flavors of licorice almost to the point of mint with notes of cedar. Aroma of fresh blackberry jam and vanilla.

Absolutely delicious bold cab. Can't beat it for $14.99 from TRADER JOES.

Blackberry pie, cola, Christmas spice and a long, loamy finish. Sweeter edge, full bodied. Dynamite QPR.
