For less than $20 this is a very respectable Cab. Not showing a hint of age, actually thought this most likely would approve with another year or two in the cellar. Quite concentrated, good cab character. Nice acidity too, with restrained fruit.

Better than expected--and not meant as a backhanded compliment. Beautiful dark garnet, raspberry tones, well balanced. Nice cab
