William Hill Cab

William Hill - 2006 Napa Valley Cabernet

Very chewy. Very good overall. However, not sure it is worth the price.

Franciscan Cab 2006

Safeway had a 20% off sale on wines $20 or more, plus 10% more off if you bought 6 or more. I bit, and snagged some to try, and splurged on a Stag's Leap.

Franciscan Cabernet - 2006 Napa Valley

Fairly bold, good flavor. A little too heavy on days 2-3, but right out of the bottle it was pretty good. Worth the extra cash? Probably not.

Hazlitt 1852 Vineyards Sweet Red Cat

Big fan of this super sweet Rose from New York. Great summer wine served chilled. Very easy to drink the whole bottle in one sitting, or a 1.5L if it is the 4th of July weekend. Rating: 4/4.
