Looking back on my tasting notes, I have enjoyed a few past vintages of this wine. This bottle of '18 is not bad, but its not very good either. Simple and a touch sweet, it tastes processed. I finished my glass, but I did not pour another.

My Grade: VG+. This is a great value Cali. Cab, much better than I was expecting given the low price. Fruit-forward, blackberry and blueberry, fine, smooth tannins, low acidity, nice long finish, well made, just too much sweetness from Residual Sugar on the mid-palate for my tastes.

Medium bodied with medium tannins. The fruit was forward. Could taste blackberry & cherries and a slight aftertaste of dried prunes

Fairly flat with a little too much sweetness. Missing a lot of things, but worth a try in this price point! On to the next bottle!
