    Stalky, burnt aromas are gritty and not fully clean or appealing. A grabby, raw, tannic palate is rough and grating, while this tastes much like the nose suggests: stalky and tomatoey. Heavy tannins and a mild but steady burn add to the toughness of this Cabernet.

    Roasted berry aromas are stalky at first but come around. This feels round but only marginally structured. Creamy ripe generic flavors of berry and cherry finish solid with some heat.

  • 200983 pts

    Burnt and leafy on the nose, with murky, earthy aromas. Feels gritty but lively, with sweet, herbal berry fruit in front of a somewhat dilute and dull finish. A modest, herbal Cab that does the job.

  • 200687 pts

    Bright fruit, mildly creamy, with good zest and acidity. Shows a sweet, savory center with hints of brown sugar and spice sitting along the edges. Easy tannins make it a friendly style; good for near-term drinking. No cellaring necessary.
