  A fairly nice Cab for the $13 paid for it. Nice color and aroma, though the finish was not quite balanced and ended rather quickly.

  - Brick color and aromas of black currant and has flavours of black currant and strawberry jam - A nice dark purple color. Aroma has hints of fruit, though I found it non-distinct. Taste has flavors of strawberry jam and a hint of black currant; however, the finish is a bit sour.

  What to say but this is very opaque and purple in color.
  
  Nose: Dark fruit, cassis, cherries maybe, some oak, with hints of eucalyptus, and a wee tad of chocolate.
  
  Taste: Quite a dense and fulfilling drink. We got dark cherries, cassis, some smoke, and a little herbaciousness to the taste. It definitely shows off its tannic structure! Ya know there’s not a whole lot of middle to this. It’s up and down…..Wham bam thank you ma’am!
  
  This is a good everyday wine, didn’t wow either of us, but good and enjoyable anyhoo.

  Decent, slight bitterness that faded with time.
