Surprisingly complex and restrained. Drinkable without food and great with lighter dishes.

Good value, easy to drink kind of cab. Drink alone or pair with lighter dish. I paired with Steak, it was just not bad.

Solid, smooth basic cab. Wish I remember what it cost. Hard to rate without all the data 🤔 Enjoying with the usual fellow wino Misidentified...it's The Divining Rod Cabernet from Alexander Valley ($17)

Not great. Too fruity and not deep enough. A little light for me.
