  An OK wine nothing spectacular here but quite palatable. Fairly spicy for a cabernet with big notes of orange and bright fruits not dark as expected from a cabernet. Not much body for finish so it is a one and done from a re-buy situation, but it did not embarrass itself.

  I think some of the low ratings are connected to the price of this wine. Yes, the value for the money is pretty low, but it still is a fairly decent wine. It has nice distinctive Cabernet characteristics of black fruit; bit of blackberry and plum. Also, some very nice oaky notes of chocolate which are especially predominant in the finish, which is medium long. All in all, it has a bit of tannins and I would recommend decanting it for 60 minutes but 30 at least. Definitely an enjoyable wine that can be consumed solo or with good food. I would pay around 20 to 25 euros for this, so yeah, the price (38 euros in Germany) is way too high. In that price range, you find more interesting wines indeed.

  The label on the bottle is very good. The wine does not keep up with the label.

  This is just downright lousy. Consumed over 3hrs and it didn't get any better with air. This is hot. Acidic. Tons of oak and almost fair dark fruit flavors. I can't believe this was recommended to me by my wine store. Maybe time to start looking for another store
