Wine still showed bit of purple in a mostly red color. Nose had decent fruit . Flavor was reasonably balanced but there was one off taste and I couldn't make out and didn't really like.

A hint of smoke. A very slight odd tannic tone, not quite normal, but not unpleasant. Not like French, CA, South Africa or South America Overall this is an OK cab, but not up to the $11 price point. I recommend having hearty food with it - a bit like Italian reds.
Perhaps slightly past due, given the prior reviews.

Decent Cab Sauv, restraint. Dry, medium(-) acidity, medium ripe tannin, medium body and medium(+) alcohol @14% abv. On the palate black and dark fruits, leather, cocoa. Glycerinic texture. Good length with elegant tannin. Nothing spectacular but does well to protect visitors from your cellar.

Solid, smooth taste, on the lighter side
