  This is a decent entry-level cabernet. Cherry, chocolate, and pepper greet the nose. There is noticeable oak on the taste, along with fruit, but overall it finishes pleasantly.

  Deep ruby, pronounced nose, with aromas of blossom, rose, apricot, mango, black pepper, chocolate and toasted bread.
  Dry, hi tannin, hi acidity, hi alcohol, full body.
  Red fruit, mango and apricot, as well as the chocolate and toasted bread.
  Long finish.

  So many different views below but we all agree on nothing special. The nose is cherry and grassy forest floor, verdant notes. It's thin on the palate with lots of acidity, not much structure, and sweet tannins on the way down. If you want a real everyday drinking wine, try Mt Veeder. It's not a bad wine, but it's not a great wine either.
