The Hess Collection
North Coast Cabernet Sauvignon


Not bad a cab when a feeling of disappointment is what was expected. I have found, that with most $15-$20 red wines, the uncomplicated, sweetish vanilla and spice characteristic is what one must prepare himself for, but, if, as a result of fearing being let down, you lower your expectations, Bam!: Magic will happen about 20% of the time!
Its like the wine buyer's version of "Under-promise and over-deliver"

Exactly what it purports to be: solid table wine. Medium bodied, nice plum, berry notes. Satisfying cab that doesn't make you try too hard.
