Crisp in acids, and with the flavor of tart green apples, figs and white peaches, this is an easy, satisfying wine. It’s fully dry and very clean, leaving the palate ready for food.

A little raw around the edges, but pretty good for the price. Shows true Cab character, with juicy berry and chocolate flavors and a hint of smoky oak. The finish is dry and spicy.
