Light and simple; cassis primary in the nose, with... well, not a lot else. Perhaps some vegetal notes. Primary in the mouth -- cassis, more vegetal notes (green pepper -- do they mix carmenere into this?). Light to medium-bodied, fairly short on the finish.
Not an amazingly good cab, but a serviceable "Tuesday night" wine. Palatable, but there's better out there. Drink... well, basically now; I don't see a lot of improvement happening here.

Unattractive on the nose, vegetal and rubbery, with an off-putting, out of balance fruit profile. Short finish (in this case, a good thing). For what it's worth, typical of what Los Vascos produces, so if you like that style of wine, give it a try, but it's not for me.
