Deep garnet in color with crimson hues. Ripe, dark black cherry, chocolate and currant complement the spicy, peppery notes and hints of toasted sweet oak. Jammy dark fruit flavors accompanied by soft velvety tannins, followed with a long, rich finish.
My Notes:
Color is a cross between garnet and ruby. Nose of white pepper, rhubarb, rubbing alcohol and leather. A bit one dimensional to me with strong dark cherry at the front with a medium finish and slight alcohol burn at the end. A young but drinkable Cabernet that even though lacks complexity and is absent of multiple layers of flavor, is still a pretty good value at $9.99. I'd buy it again.
