Hmm... this seemed a little tight, and never fully gave up the acid-forward tartness. As a Napa cab, the weak tannins in it made me wonder about its cellarability as well. Not really sure I'd buy this one again. I've had it bopping around the cellar for about a year now, and finally got around to drinking it. Low commitment, average quality. I prefer a better wine for everyday drinking.

Perhaps just past it's peak, but still a decent Napa Cab. Good fruit still on the nose and palate, medium finish. Decent QPR

Needs at least a few hours or even a day to open up. Food wine, consume with red meat.

Nice, inexpensive Napa Cab. Medium tannins. Balanced fruit (black berry) flavors. Pleasant drinking.
