  Concentrated fruit with not much of a mid-palate but still has some nice tannins.

  Fresh and blackberry aromas. Standard Sonoma and nice for it.

  A little tannin. A little acid. Not much fruit. One dimension and a short finish.

  Six from Safeway (Private home in Arlington, Virginia): The nose gives off an almost sweet fruit expression but it is unmistakably Cabernet Sauvignon, which I guessed. Spicy oak notes as well as sweet red fruits on the nose could certainly please lovers of this style, but the palate disappoints insofar as the finish is like sucking on a plank of oak. No thanks. Readers should take note that this producer makes better wines from higher priced brands, as I had experienced as a judge at the Critics' Challenge in San Diego in 2019.
