This wine is not as bad as some have scored it, at least not the bottle I had. While it was a gift, it certainly was entirely palatable and pleasant to drink. Not particularly memorable, BUT it was medium garnet with a nose of oak/vanilla, a little alcohol, plum and other red fruit. Not particularly layered but chewy and lively in the mouth. Modest aftertaste of licorice, plum and eucalyptus.

Didn't leave me wanting more, but didn't hate it either. I got it on a buy one/get one sale so didn't think it was bad for the price, but probably wouldn't pay full price.

Seemed to be a solid cab, with a decent decant. Has more time

If you want fruit bubblegum, go for it. Spend an extra $10 and get something drinkable or save $10 and get something just as bad
