Very surprising quality for the vintage. I bought this as the best option of limited wine list in the mountains and was pleasantly surprised. Inviting nose with more backbone than expected.

I was pleasantly surprised with this one. Received as a gift. Upon opening it was hot and disjointed. However, after about 1+ hrs in the decanter it turned into a decent cab. Licorice, black cherry, plum. Shorter finish for a cab, but definitely a decent grocery store wine - just be sure to decant!

Love this wine. It's a great step from two buck chuck for not many more bucks. Decant for an hour and it really opens.

Very much a standard Cali cab. Some nice green pepper / vegetal notes, and solid fruit.

Licorice, black cherry notes. Nice tannins. Thin mouth feel for a cab.
