Purple florals, meatloaf and pomegranate on the swishing nose..... The almost 14% alcohol is immediately evident. Tight and rich but nothing major for the palate w a quick finish.....longing for more but for $28 who cares.

Hinton's Annual Blind Tasting Challenge (Bin 75): Dark garnet with bright garnet rim; darker fruit, blackcurrant, pine, wood but not oaky, almost graphite; tannin, tart plum, loaded with blackcurrant, smoke, green pepper in back, decent structure; tasty, immediately thought Sonoma but the fact this was screaming Cabernet I assumed it was Chilean...something difficult for CA to do at this price point.
