I think some of the comments are a little strong. This is a decent table wine, not a big cab for sure. So, if you evaluate it with the peer group of grocery wines around $12 it is decent. If you insist on comparing this to a $45 cab you will be disappointed.

Terrific value cabernet even with a short drinkability range. Needed decanting for only a few minutes. Drank with a non-fancy Sunday dinner and while watching football.

Licqourice root, coriander, plums on the nose, rough-ish tannins, cherries in the forefront, a bit bland.

Simple wine, pleasant to drink. Lacks the depth I look for when opening a Cabernet Sauvignon.
