I can say that this wine is another great low-priced wine out there. I have imbibed most of what Friday Monkey produces (I love the Shiraz and the Cabernet Sauvignon/Merlot blend) and I just tried the plain Cab Sauv. It is quite wonderful, and while it lacks the great depth of an expensive Cab, its depth is quite good for the price.

Filled with very dark [and candied] plums, this wine exudes great sweetness, reminiscent of a white wine. It is the ultimate inexpensive party filler, as well as great for a meeting of two... or three :-)

We believe in finding something that you like the taste of, outside of the basic brands that you have been force-fed over the years through a combination of ethnically targeted advertising, and what people in your family have historically been drinking.
