93 POINTS: Wine Enthusiast
"This wine is lively, concentrated, hues of cherry garnet with aromas of ripe Black cherry, huckleberry, grilled orange slices, mulled spices and floral on the nose. The flavors on the palate are juicy Bing cherry, red currant compote, raspberry, pink grapefruit zest layered with key lime cream, vanilla, Bay leaf and a long silky finish." - Wine Enthusiast
Clusters from High Valley deliver bright red fruit and tannin, fruit from Red Hills contributes lush, ripe fruit character, and their Big Valley grapes add complexity and texture to this Cabernet Sauvignon.
This is very good value for money. A Piedmont red under $30! It has good dark fruit, some nice tannins and acid to balance although it would benefit from some more age to smooth it a bit but I liked its feistiness now.
I was happily surprised by the quality of the labels in the "mystery" case of rose wines - great value for the money I must say. Excellent drinking experience from the unfamiliar labels and happy to enjoy again the familiar ones.
