Totally impressed by this budget wine. Notes of plum and earth. Nicely balanced. A really solid everyday wine for the money. Great name, too.

Bright fruit and somewhat acidic finish to this simple wine. Nonetheless a nice budget wine. Goes well with pork.

Paid $7 at Trader Joes. Some nice fruit notes. Fairly mild, not much spice/pepper.

Fruity and a bit acidic, but overall very drinkable. A great deal at $8.

This is one of my favorite "everyday" wines. It's very full and round without being too mild or bland. Lots of big fruit, but not overly sweet. I always get a hint of chocolate out of the first glass. This is a great buy at $7 or $8.

Better than the Pinot Noir, but not great. For a few dollars more I could easily fine wine I enjoyed more.

Decent for the price. Nothing special about it but I would drink as an everyday bargain wine.

Considering the price on this wine, it was definitely worth it. Dark Berries, a little hot.

Overall a good tasting cab. You could do much worse for an everyday type of wine that costs a lot less than $10.

First Impressions: Barely recognizable as a cabernet. Initial tase was good, but nothing behind it except occasional raisin flavor and heavy alcohol taste.

This is a very solid bargain wine. Meaty, but balanced with some hints of plum, it would be a great wine for a larger group of dinner guests. It's pretty versatile yet still a lot of fun. And you can't beat the price. Good for an everyday cab -- don't expect it to knock your socks off.

Initial taste ok, but very unremarkable afterwards. Perhaps a lot of decanting would help.
