Very happy with this bottle. Excellent value for a BC Cabernet and could hold it's own on the world stage. Medium-full bodied, velvety mouthfeel and and powerful aromatics, this wine had hints of cocoa, chocolate, casis and pleasant herbal edge to it. Very well made wine, as is all the wines made at La Frenz.

quite nice - nice tannin - held up well with prime rib - considering the quality of the '05 Merlot, I'm looking forward to trying the '05 Reserve in a couple years.

Raspberry liquor on the nose with a hint of mint. Medium bodied, with mellow tannings. My only criticism is that I don't think this wine has the structure to age for any length of time, but as a drink me now bottle, it's delicious.

No regrets. This wine may not age forever.

Probably my top BC cab so far.
