  Great QPR - 3/24/2009
I would buy this wine again
Really liked the balance of fruit ,oak and tannins in this wine. Fruit forward, but not overly sweet and med/full-bodied with classic cab flavors. All for $15 and change! Just ordered 6 more bottles!

  My favorite Cab of the moment - 1/31/2009
I would buy this wine again
This very reasonably priced cab is just a pleasure in the mouth. It has a full body, balanced tannins, and a wonderful earthy aroma. I tasted black cherries, peppers, mushrooms, and just a hint of tobacco leaf.

I purchased this Cab as a holiday gift for my dad, and what an excellent choice it was! We enjoyed it so much, I bought him a case for his birthday just a few weeks later! I would highly recommend this wine.

  Indian Wells Cabernet Sauvignon 2005 - 8/19/2008

 I would buy this wine again
Beautiful round ripe fruit with a vanilla oak structure. Medium body and rewards with long flavors. Somewhat soft mouthfeel with enough tannin to finish elegantly. Does not overpower. Will be buying more!

  Chateau St. Michelle Indian Wells 2005 - 7/3/2008

 I would buy this wine again
I've tasted previous vintages of the Indian Wells and always found them very reliable. This 2005 is no exception. Beautiful color (deep garnet) and subtle nose of violets and cherries. Wonderful on the palate and with a good finish. I'll save the other 5 I purchased, as another 1-3 years would enhance the experience.

Kosher wine
Kosher
A Kosher wine begins like every other - as grapes on a vine. Once they reach the winery for crushing, the wine is under strict rabbinal supervision.
Screw Cap wine
Screw Cap
Many studies report and winemakers agree that screw caps protect wine better and preserve its flavor more effectively than cork. More importantly, screw caps eliminate cork taint caused by TCA, a compound which develops in a small percentage of corks and ruins the taste of wine.
Green wine
