Nose of plum, cassis, roasted coffee beans with light herbal touch. Full, supple and balanced with good length. Very good Napa cab for the price. 86/14 Cab/Merlot.

8/2023. Laid back easy to drink Cab. Paired well with the peel & eat shrimp and the halibut at Mr. Friendly’s.

A great plume of fruit on the nose. At pop and pour, it was quite mellow with juicy fruit and low tannin - almost merlot-esque. Then the wine opened into the more typical black cherry, cassis and a follow through of licorice and tobacco. Quite good.

Continues to be a good lower priced staple. Lots of dark fruit in the end.

Very good for the price. Really starting to taste more balanced with the aerator. Could go longer and probably be great.

Darker fruit and better as it opens and breathes. A few days after it’s great. Needs more time but a great value for the price.

Great lower priced cab option. Still like their Merlot better but this drank nicely with earthy tones
