Oaky nose, decent fruit. Palette is same, a little heat but not bad for a 14.5%. Moderate tannic grip, again, not objectionable and should smooth out. Great QPR at $13. Like their Ruah a little better.

Nice nose and attack. This wine is on the young side for a Cabernet and didn't finish really well, but my guess is that's something that will improve over time. Otherwise had many of the characteristics of a decent Yakima Valley Cab.
