Perfectly fine for a fruit forward heavy berry cheap cab. Nothing remarkable to make me want to buy it again, but I'd happily drink it on a given night. Sort of a patio pounder bottle of wine.

Dull medium plus concentration ruby. Nose of blackcurrant juice, a bit cloying. Medium plus body, elevated alcohol, diminished acid, diminished tannins. A bit soft and unpleasant on the palate. Some hints of oak influence - sawdusty tones.

Much more powerful and muscular than I expected. Steong alcohol and a bit of sweetness. Seemed more or less in balance and the trannins were sufficiently integrated. All in all a good drink with a strong enough food pairing, but a little overpowering for my personal taste.

Very drinkable Cab and a great value. Nothing stands out - positive or negative. Ruby, smooth, pleasant nose, and berries.

Decent weekday wine...we will try again, but not pair with chili (although I liked the pairing, DH did not as much).
