Really don't see what people see in this wine. It is not varietally correct - no Cab characteristics, certainly does not taste like a Napa Cab and the price > $30? Really? It tasted to us like an entry level $8.99 Zin/Syrah blend and on that basis it was OK, until I remembered what we paid for it... Proceed at your own risk. BTW, we let it breathe for about 4 hours given its youth and it was no better the second day (what was left). Ripped off. Overly sweet and flat.

A nose of dark fruit and some spice, dark garnet in color. A medium to full bodied red, with black cherry, plum, licorice and spice on finish, decent not great. www.winelx.com

The wine looks garnet colored and the legs are slow. Aromas of burnt, toast, oak and black currant (cassis). On the palate fig, plum, mushroom and black pepper. The body is full, has leathery texture and finishes long.
