Roasted cherry and rubber aromas comprise the nose. The mouth has sharp acidity, which causes tang and zestiness to go with standard blackberry and dark plum flavors. Other than the acidic sharpness, this is a solid everyday Cab.

Smells a bit waxy and grassy, with mild, distant white-fruit aromas. The palate feels pithy and chalky, with generic citrus flavors and then citrus pith on the back end. Finishes with more pithiness and white grapefruit.

Earth and rubber aromas dominate the nose, which isn’t what you’d call fresh or inviting. The palate improves only slightly, with piercing acidity pressing green-leaning plum and berry flavors. Oaky on the finish and marginal overall.
