Review

Wine Enthusiast Published 2000, Oct 25 2001 12:00AM 87 Review: "What great fruit! It has the stuffing and fruity ripeness of plenty of other costly Cabernets, at a fraction of the cost. Maybe that is because they didn`t drench it in expensive oak barrels. Don`t look for char or vanilla or smoke, just terrific blackberry flavor in a dry package, with $50 tannins. Best Buy!" --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
