•Shop/wine critic/winery review "This is an easy drinking, low priced Cab that works very well as a $5 happy hour wine. Medium bodied, soft mouthfeel, with woody palate and flavors of blackberries, plums, leather, mocha, and light oak. Firm tannins and mild acidity."

•Your review: For how cheap this wine was, I was impressed. It was smooth and not very acidic. Instead of well-balanced I would say that it is a little flat. It does not feel very full bodied and seems to fall out from start to finish. Taste-wise it was enjoyable, very dark fruit forward. I liked this for what it was, but it lands about exactly as one would expect for a ten-buck-cab.
