December 6, 2012 - Pretty much a typical mid+ range California Cabernet Sauvignon. Scents of toast and crushed berries with a touch of mint on the nose and ripe red cherry flavors and a nice vanilla element on the palate. Slightly tannic on the back end. Could probably use a couple of years in the bottle or a few hours in the decanter. At $38, this is a pretty good deal for what you are getting.
