This is one of the best deals, maybe the best, in a Cabernet Sauvignon available today at this price. It’s dry and rich in blackberry, cherry, mint and smoky oak flavors, wrapped into finely ground tannins. A great wine to buy by the case for a house red. Production was nearly 30,000 cases. ——S.H.(6/1/2011)—— 85

Jammy and fresh, with peppery flavors of crushed ripe blackberries and cherries, accented with a touch of sweet, smoky oak.——S.H.(9/1/2009)—— 84

Dry and full-bodied, this is the kind of rustic Cab that, at this price, you can serve at your next big condo party or BBQ without breaking the bank. It has leathery flavors of blackberries and cola.——S.H.(11/1/2007)—— 84
