  Consumed over 2 days (vacuvined and refrigerated), note from day 2. Appearance: Clear, medium ruby with very slight edge bricking. Nose: Clean, medium+ intensity with developed aromas of ripe blackberry and black raspberry, bell pepper, eucalyptus, and spice. Palate: Dry, medium+ acid and tannin, medium intensity, medium+ body, 14.3% abv, with flavors of spicy blackberry, bell pepper, and sweet tobacco with a medium+ finish. This is drinking exceptionally well, especially for an inexpensive mass produced Napa cabernet hitting on all cylinders - balance, length, intensity, and complexity. Drink now or over next 2-3 years.

  A most excellent bottle of wine. Smooth medium body (14.3%) dark red wine. Pleasant nose followed by licorice, black cherry and plum fruit. Satisfying finish. Needed 45 minutes to open.

  Giving it a point higher than normal just because it's so reliable year after year. Great weeknight cab, tannins unobtrusive and good flavor and finish. House wine for years to come.
