I LOVE IT! First time I try it and really, really like it. It's very smooth and although fruity it's not sweet. You can taste plum and the finish is very smooth. Low acidity. I would definitely be buying this one gain and again. It's good to drink on a regular basis without breaking the bank.
Smooth & Supple
Bought a case and I'm glad I did. An incredibly easy drinking wine that I could enjoy every night of the week. I'd better grab another case...
Enjoyable for sipping alone, serving at a party, or having with barbecue. There are others I would choose first at a comparable price, but I found this selection easy to swallow, with no harsh aftertaste.
Earthy & Spicy
Very good wine and excellently priced. One of the best values this year.
a bit of spice and complexity mixed in. fruit and berries. In another 6 months it will be even better!
It tastes like mold. Even after aerating, it still tastes like mold. Not worth the $8.99. not even worth cooking with- yuck
I tried this in August 2012. i could not drink much of this and ended up pouring the wine down the drain. i don't pour a bottle out very often. I bought it because it was relatively inexpensive.
Really good every day wine! Smooth, fruity and a great value! Columbia Crest did a wonderful job on this one!
Not a bad little wine. Great price. Would buy again. Good for everyday consumption. But would serve a better wine for guests.
Light for a cab. Easy to drink, maybe a little too sweet for me. Reminds me of a flat can of coke. Good for the price, more than drinkable, but not a great wine. Day 2 showing its age, finish it in 1 day.

Good wine for cooking, little else

Columbia Crest Two Vines Cabernet is a smooth, no bite wine. The finish is just wonderful. I am no master taster, so I can't tell you abut the trace flavors and nuances. I can tell you that if you want a wine that is drinkable any time of the day, then this is your wine.

Nice Cabernet. A little young, but full of flavor. Good finish.

Normally we are not fans of blends, we prefer pure vinifera with some (expensive) exceptions. This blend is a pleasant surprise, it is really quite good.
Extraordinary value for the price and quality.
Sandy is tired of this one.
Not sure how this got a 90 point from anywhere ... Very one-dimensional so there's not much to balance. Not worth it, even at $9. (p.s. wine is drinkable, but just not very interesting - life is too short to drink bad/ordinary wine)
For the price, this is a decent cabernet for just a simple drinking wine during the week.
Smooth & Supple
Wow. At this price point, I was worried when I ordered it, but it is superb. Smooth start and a white chocolate finish. Drinks more like a Pinot Noir than a typical heavy Cab. Got to buy some more.
Light & Fruity
Tried this wine based on reviews from this site and it was as good as described! A new favorite for my husband and I!
This is a very smooth wine, with a slippery texture, not a very long finish. Would definitley drink with a meal. Quite a deal for $8.99.
Deep Garnet, fruity on the noes. Very smooth and silky, good fruit on this one. This could be very well be a great everyday wind-me-down kind of bottle!
Smooth & Supple
This wine is VERY smooth and easy drinking. I tend to prefer a more bold style, but this is a great, every day wine to eat with rich, yummy foods or deserts. Great value at this price point.
Smooth & Supple
This is a good wine for the price point. I would def drink with a bake pork chop or something meaty. ( No Steak)
Smooth & Supple
Awesome wine for the money. Don't miss this deal. I'm sure the price will go up once this one gets more attention.
Smooth & Supple
A simple wine that can be drunk every day. Its like a staple in my diet.
Light & Fruity
Drinkable, but certainly doesn't outperform its price point.
It is an OK wine for the price, but I think there are ones a lot better for 2-3 bucks more (% wise, it is a lot more though).
For the $ this is a really good wine.
Light & Fruity
Enjoyed the previous vintage, this one might be better? Am hopeful... If so, a very good value.
Smooth and fruity, as advertised. Great everyday dinner wine.
Smooth & Supple
Not a big fn. Too plummy.
Smooth finish but not my first choice
excellent for the price. Soft, supple cab ready to drink now.
Smooth & Supple
Excellant Value
Smooth & Supple
6,5 yes fruity, lean but not well-rounded in the aroma, medium-light body, balanced, short finish, very good for the price
Smooth & Supple
A true value, and a perfect example of Columbia valley cab
Nice body, very smooth finish. This is an all around great wine that just gets better when you see the price.
Good light Cab easily used as a table red with CLASS!
A good choice for a house red. Can be found for $6.99. Can't beat that value proposition. Very tasty. Worth buying in quantity when the price is right.
Big & Bold
I think the price is about right.
A very good tasting wine. I would rate it a 92 and the price was terrific.
Smooth & Supple
It was so good that I'm tempted to give it a bad rating so that they don't sell out. Just ordered 15 bottles just in case. :) Was just very smooth, very fruity (but not sweet), and low acidity (which is important to my wife). Comes together to make a wine that we believe can compete with a $20 or $30 bottle.
Smooth & Supple
for the price this is a very good selection and a pleasant surprise, regardless of price it is still a good selection, it is not as big and bold as some cabs but more on the fruity side.
Light & Fruity
A very nice everyday Cabernet for a reasonable price. The blending of the two vines produces a wine better than either could be on it's own.
I was sceptical, however, this is actually an extremely good wine for the money. It is solid, smooth, and not overly-fruity, making it a great wine to sit down at lunch or dinner with. LIKE!
Great find - delicious berry and black fruit with a fine finish - super buy at $9 - buy a bunch, great everyday wine!
This is a great wine at a great price! I love the full body flavor while still being light on the pallet - easy to drink. You could have this with pizza or with the finest steak in the land!
Smooth & Supple
Excellent wine. Very smooth finish. Would definitely buy again!
