This is my 4th bottle over the last few months and it grows on me each time I crack a new bottle. Don't expect a complex Cabernet, however I find the fruit and tannin combination works very well on its own. Good by itself or with food, but I felt it paired very nicely with pizza.

A good solid value priced Napa Valley Cabernet. I get lots of blue fruit on the nose, reminiscent of clone 6 or 7 grapes. Lots of color. Almost full bodied. Made in the fruit forward style. There is not a lot of complexity, just good winemaking. There is some nice vanilla from the oak program. Balanced with controlled tannins. Nothing hidden here, just easy drinking Cabernet.

Simple yet pleasant cab. Red fruit up front with fairly well integrated tannins and a short dry finish. Nothing great, but a solid everyday wine.
