This bottle seemed to be reasonably put together--for sure better than the previous bottle. At under $10 that I got it, it is priced nicely and a fair QPR. Lots of oak on the nose. Medium body

Solid Cab with medium body but just a touch watery in flavor. Has a touch of green pepper middle after a good bit of black berries, end has light oak and smooth tannin

Some pruney overtones initially in the taste, that faded over the hours. Not a bad wine, just nothing there that really stands out. No tannins here, smooth taste, no sediment. Dark Crimson in color.

Clear dark purple in colour. Clean nose of black fruit and bell pepper. Dry, med acidity, med body, smooth tannins. Simple black fruits on palate, med finish. I think previous scores were very hard. Not an overly sophisticated wine, but for the price it is a great go to wine. Would not rush out to buy a bunch, but for the right crowd I would not hesitate to purchase.

Pleasantly surprised! Purple colored with fast, thin legs, black pepper aroma, raisin, some bell pepper and fruit flavor, light to medium body, smooth texture. Very little after taste.

Blueberry nose, dark fruit and some spice without much pepper on the palate.
Nice finish
Very enjoyable

Thin for a cab. Agree with plum nose and front end as others have note.

All Plum, Dislike Plum. Actually more prune than plum. Do not recommend.

Nice black currant flavors with beautiful tobacco finish. A lot of green pepper on the palate. Really good with tapas, manchego cheese and lamb.

Nice. A lot of fruit - hints of cherry and licorice as it opens up
