  November 16, 2014 - Bordeaux-Lite... And I don't mean that in a bad way. A soft, simple, elegant, slightly short-finishing wine, but the price is right and I would argue it over delivers for the $12 price tag. This offers cassis, earth and leather notes; balanced, and does not cross into a over-ripe, modern wine; tastes like Bordeaux (but again, quite light-bodied).

  October 8, 2014 - Fresh and juicy, dark cherry and vanilla flavor, quaffable. Second day: more earth and pepper, campfire smokiness.

  March 26, 2014 - paid $12. you can definitely do alot worse at this price point. the body is a little thin and the finish is a little short, but hey, at least it tastes like Bordeaux. nose of barnyard, and mostly red fruit. black cherry, and a little strawberry with time. tasty upfront with juicy apple skin like tannins but lacking a pronounced finish i'd take this over many Cali cabs at the price point.
