Liked this alot. Similar to many Cabs that I've tasted. Dark ruby red, decanted for about 20 min. Nice nose of dark fruit, wood and dirt. Opened up after a little time in the glass. Nice fruit like blackberry and plum with some slight smokey elements and a nice peppery finish. Good QPR.

Nose of spicy black fruit, wood & cinnamon. Peppery, mildly tart blackberry flavor. Spicy going down. Nice for the price. Held up well with spicy Mexican fare. Will buy again.

Six months ago my nephew came to dinner and brought us 5 bottles of inexpensive wine. Each has been more awful than the next but they have been useful in cases where, for instance, we were just going to have one quick glass and throw the rest of the bottle away. This one is by far the best -- in fact for the most part it's actually enjoyable. Blackberry and blueberry fruit with a moderate finish. Nothing special, but there's nothing wrong with it at all.

A yeasty smell when first opening the bottle but it drank well. Somewhat muted fruit but pleasant and satisfying.
