A nice California cab. A bit flat and one-dimensional as compared to what else is available for this price. Tastes younger than it is. Polite and medium-bodied for a Cab and some may like that — quite dry though.

Another review pans this for not having a wow factor; well, that's exactly what I liked about it. Dead-on bright and silky California Cabernet typicity with black cherry, graphite, tobacco, medium plus body and some depth. A good food wine that sips well too.

Decanted for an hour and paired with a ribeye and it was a good pairing! Typical cabernet aromas of black current, leather and spices. The palate is full bodied with the black fruits, leather, pencil shavings and an oak finish. Quite good but not complex and perhaps slightly over extracted.
I picked up this wine at a great discount which made it nicer. If I had paid full retail I may not have liked it as much.

40 dollar Napa cab. Nothing remarkable, meets expectations for the price.
