January 23, 2022 - Me gusto
September 23, 2021 - Medium ruby, moderate aromas of black cherry, flavors of black cherry and licorice, horehound mint, medium tannins & acid, dry, earthy mushroom flavored medium finish, slightly disjointed on end. drink with food. Lots going on very good qpr @ -$14
June 6, 2021 - Agreed with previous reviewer, light for a Cab but still characteristic. Aromas are still fresh, lighter red berries. Some bright acidity with a clear rim tells me there's still some aging potential, maybe a couple more years. Blackberry and tart black currant carry this wine with some leather and campfire on the medium length finish.
January 14, 2021 - Rather light for a Cab, but smooth with soft tannins. A very good value.
November 26, 2020 - Great for a free wine. Would consider buying since its a fair price
April 3, 2020 - Medium full, earthy, angular.
February 3, 2020 - dark red good acid tannins
December 29, 2019 - Ripe blackberry & plum fruit. Some oak & herbs. Might get better with a little more shelf time.
