I graded this down, although it's not really much different than my memory of the first bottle. Enough typicity to say it's cab, but not more. A little oaky, a little bit of coffee and cassis. Not sure I'd buy again even at $9, just because there are interesting wines at that price these days, and this just doesn't hold a ton of interest. But fine for a casual drink, or at a reception.

Fruit forward, but nicely balanced. Not overly complex, but enough so to satisfy. Would pair well with a robust pasta dish or a pizza.

Nice - Simple over complex, and not acidic or tannic. Would buy again.

Not great but not bad. Inexpensive and a decent everyday wine. First taste and you think WOW! It loses that punch sip after sip.
