Wonderful Californian CB and I got it again for 50% in a Danish Supermarket, so I bought the last 3 bottles in the store. :)

Smooth. Hints of dark fruit and cherry. Nice legs. Hearty finish.

As expected a year more made this Californian CB better, now 90+, and the good thing is it was again on sale for ~50% in a Danish Supermarket.

Nice Californian CB, lighter than the Napa Valley CB, medium finish and smooth. Got it for 50% in a Danish Supermarket and would by it again, especially when it is on sale. Right now 89. However, probably worth to keep it for 1-2 years and then expecting >= 90.

Definitely a cut above your typical bottom shelf cab. Dark color, attractive nose. Not overly fruity. Medium-bodied. Some depth, lacks complexity. Smooth finish. Easy drinking. Very cool label!

Really great table wine but as I expand my experience to other Napa Cabs it seems a bit more pedestrian. I loved this wine over the summer and bought a case of 2018 to let sit for another year. A really nice nose after the bottle is opened but flattens out after a couple of hours. Mouth feel is full and swallow has some strength to it but at $12 a bottle it drinks more at the $18-20 level.

Fruit forward. Smooth. Very good wine. I’m a little on the lighter side for a Cabernet. A little young, so should be better in 6 to 12 months

Very fruit forward, not a ton of balance or tannin. But definitely drinkable and pretty solid for a $19 wine. Definitely smooth and doesn’t have any of the “alcohol” smell that I expected. I’ve had worse bottles that were more expensive.

Held to day 3... Savory with a bit of the cream day 1 a little fake edge but it blew off... Passed this up for years figured it was fakey manufactured and maybe it has a hint of that but thats solid for it to be drinkable day 3.. Still a lil weird twang but its savory enough at $11 im been pouring bad wine down the drain lately trust me if it was some fakey garbage i wouldve dumped …
