Well rounded cab, very evenly balanced. This wine would pair wonderfully with food or by itself. Wonderful value for the money. This bottle was given to me by a local distributor as a sample.

Founded in 1973 in the Sonoma Valley, Chateau St. Jean produces an extensive portfolio of Sonoma County wine, including the award winning Cinq Cépages, a Bordeaux style blend of “five varieties." From various vineyards on Sonoma, wine shows black fruit aromas and sweet spice. On the palate ripe fruit flavors of blackberry and cherry with cinnamon and cacao. Tannins are finr with balanced acidity on medium+ finish.

I liked it because of a nice astringent tannic finish with balanced fruit. Deep color. First small taste I knew it needed to be decanted. This wine has a back bone.

A very drinkable but uninteresting California Cab Sav. Not that great of a bargain at $20 a bottle, but with stereotypical cherries, red fruits, and tannins one would expect.
