Moderate amount of fruit with cherry and other red fruits, spice, ruby color but not inky; this is a lighter weight wine of average quality, worth probably $7. Over priced at $14. Some bottle variation with some being more complex with mint and eucalyptus notes. 86-88.

High Low Blind Tasting Part II - Can you taste the difference NOW? (Amy and Scott's house): Decanted 30 minutes and served blind alongside 2012 Outpost True Vineyard cabernet. The group completely nailed this as being a simple but acceptable cabernet. The term "porch pounder" was mentioned by a couple people. No one loved it, and no one complained about it being completely worthless. There were no votes for this wine over the 2012 Outpost True Vineyard.

Not much to this. Watered down and out of balance. Tannic and the fruit is masked
