What to Expect

Cabenet Sauvignon: Originally of French origins, this versatile grape produces exceptional wines around the globe. It's usually medium to full bodied with a fine structure that supports black and red fruit flavors with typical notes of olive, chili and herbs that add complexity.

Sweet black fruits and pipe tobacco, some black pepper, a touch of crayon waxiness,

Soft and rich with acids sneaking in on the backend. Bright very purple berry and plum fruit. Soft tannins, a bit of chocolate across the midpalate., Frankly grapy and fun tasting yet with food structure. Fruity yet not a fruit bomb with a decent finish. 87pts

Sweet, fruity nose of blueberries and welches grape juice. Grape jelly in the mouth - this is a seriously fruity wine. Sweet and fruity up front, with low tannins and not much after. Finishes quickly, but for $12 its a great deal.

Tastes like you would imagine, a violet-hued wrangler of large cattle. It's a real fruity time on the good times ranch.

This wine was powerfully fruity that just hits you in the face. It's a fun wine to drink alone and with a bunch of friends. However, there isn't a lingering finish which is what makes this wine fun to drink alone but not so much during a meal, that's my opinion.

Inky, fruit forward, berry and a slight chocolate tone. No special nuances to this selection, but worth the $10 I spent on it. I would call it a very good picnic wine or a wine to drink out on the back patio with a friend.

Powerful nose of blueberries and spice. A little dry in the mouth with a big tannic kick that quickly fades into a pleasant chalky finish. Giddy up.
