The 2005 Cabernet Sauvignon exhibits black currant,dried herb, earth, and spice characteristics. It is a fruit-driven, medium-bodied, soft wine to consume over the next 2-3 years. One of the premium purveyors of value-priced California wines (believe me, there are not many that offer high quality at low prices), Cartlidge & Browne continues to provide rewarding and surprisingly tasty drinking.  Robert Parker 85 points (Aug 2008)
