  October 12, 2020 - Retail $20. 100% Cabernet Sauvignon. Big Ass Bottle. Fairly dark in color and certainly in aromas with blackberry, plum, a touch of mocha, smoke, and a little hot (14.5% ABV). No need for confusion here, the fruit is at the forefront on the palate and remains there through the finish. A nice acidity comes in on the mid-palate and tries its hardest to make some inroads, but the fruit powers back in on the finish. If you like your Cabs big and boisterous, here you go! thedrunkencyclist.com

  May 14, 2020 - Quaffable red wine from Sonoma County. Good color, bramble berry aromas -quite ordinary on the palate with adequate black fruit flavors a with not a big finish

  April 23, 2020 - Don’t drink much California wine, and just starting to explore more of them. Grew up drinking mostly French, Italian, and Spanish, so trying to see what they are all about.
  
  Rich, intense flavor, berry jam and plum up front, strong tannins, a bit of spice at the end, and noticeable vanilla from the oak.
  
  Not crazy about it, but I can appreciate it. Need to try more cabs from Sonoma and of course Napa so I have a frame of reference.
