Red currant, a little herb. Tobacco. Smooth with a slightly spicy finish. Just not a big cab.

Great fruit character. A bit heavy on the tannin but a really good, drinkable cab. Will revisit this one several times

It's decent, kind of starts of good but then dies. I was expecting something more at the end, kind of tastes like grape juice at the end

Valero wine stop - better than usual weeknight red wine. Washington state.

Delicious cab. Fun night at Cory's Christmas part. We got high and drunk, and we went on an adventure tracking down all the Santas in his house. We tracked down 69.

This wine is not complicated. Some oak, soft, almost velvety, not abrasive, dry without drying your entire pallet. Aroma is amazing, tannins are subdued, easy drinker. I like what Washington is doing lately.

Yummy, light for a cab, but smooth. Probably a more traditional cab would be better with my steak.
