Dark, jammy fruit bomb. Delish, but a one trick pony.

Love this wine... perhaps a smidge too late in drinking as the fruit was not what it was, but still very good.

This was a very nice, surprisingly very dry wine. Subtle but appropriate for a Riesling. Would be a perfect summertime pre-meal aperitif.

Excellent balance for a $16 Cali Cab. Fruit/Oak split with some additional layers of spice make this wine a very yummy choice- especially for the price.
