fairly decent "weeknight" type cab. smooth and balanced. medium to dark red fruit. not especially dry or tannic. drank ok on opening and no major changes after decanting, though it smoothed out slightly.

very dark color. good dark fruit bouquet. Dark fruit flavors with some cassis and leather or tobacco. Medium plus weight. Rich mouthfeel. Decent finish. Nice wine for $20. (this was the second wine we drank that night so I look forward to seeing how it shows when it is the first bottle of a night--might be even better.)

Quite harsh to start then after about 45 min smoothed out and became quit drinkable. Nothing special but not a bad wine for 20. Just be sure to give it some time to unwind.
