Raspberry, cherry, licorice, herbs, plum. Beautiful deep garnet color. Supple mouthfeel. Less dry than expected, low tannin - especially on the finish. Very approachable.

Deep purple in color, and cloudy, with a purplish rim.

Tart on the nose with strawberries, raspberries, sour cranberries, pomegranates, licorice, light vanilla, wood, alcohol, metals and black pepper.

Medium bodied, smooth and elegant, with high acidity and long long legs.

Tart on the attack with sour raspberries, strawberries, vinegar, licorice, wood, tobacco, sage, bitter herbs, green vegetables and peppercorn.

Medium plus on the finish with medium tannins and tart cranberries.

This Napa Cabernet is unbalanced, but with some complexity. A little disappointing for the price point. It does not smell or taste like a Napa Cabernet. It became more tart as it opened up.

Very austere right now and will improve in a couple of years in the bottle.

14.9% alcohol by volume.

A 98% Cabernet wine, grapes sourced from all over Naps, dark red with black fruit aromas and pungent spice. On the palate dark berry flavors with smoky spice, cacao and racy acidity. Fine, yet firm tannins carry the fruit to a medium ending with a mineral finish.

Like it better than most cabs, did let it cellar a while.

Dark, flavor is what you might expect, stays on the tongue, blueberry and autumn leaves.

Red fruit but not too tart or sharp. Wonderful bouquet upfront and long finish. I really enjoyed it for the price. Wish the steak at the restaurant was as good!
