Surprisingly good from Esquin sampler for summer. Nice bouquet. Full plum, black cherry vegetal flavours. May be loosing some fruit at this point, but I never tasted this before so not 100% certain. Good tannin and acid. Nice long finish. I would buy more.

this wine is so well balanced, so pure with black currants and strong earth tones that it makes you want to scream, pack your gears and move to the South of France !! forgot to mention that this is less than $11.

Dark ruby red with some residue; Little tight when first opened; Needs about an hour to open; Overall a nice old world style Cab; Earthy; Definitely a Vin de Pays d'Oc (country wine); Not a great value, I paid ($18.99) and this is more of a $12-$15 wine.

I really believe this is Cab sauv the way it is supposed to be made. Wild. Rustic. Juicy. A great Kermit Lynch wine for under $15.
