The full review has tasting notes & what we paired it with. It went well with a dip in the pool on the second day

Around the web:

Great, affordable wine. surprisingly smooth. best after breathing

Dark fruit begining with a strong ending. Full, just enough bitterness. Great with our steak.

The 2006 Cabernet Sauvignon nails it, admits winemaker Joe Kidd. It embodies everythingthat we’re striving for with the Sterling Vintner’s Collection. Not only does it show greatvarietal expression with a depth of rich cherry, dark fruit and vanilla toast – but it is full, fleshy and fun to drink – a classic Cabernet to be enjoyed with all occasions. Pair with rich foods such as roast lamb, steak au poivre, or potatoes au gratin. from Wine.com

I really wanted to like this wine.

The label was sort of classy looking. Sitting on the dinner table the bottle looked promising and I had gotten a great deal on it. $4.50 per bottle on a half price clearance from a local market where it was supposedly $9.99 retail.

Woops!
