Description from the Naked Grape: "Some people have a naturally rich style that's effortless yet deep and complex. This character is never showy or high maintenance and reminds us a lot of The Naked Grape Cabernet Sauvignon. Our wine offers bold flavors of dark fruit and blackberries without making you bend over backward to enjoy it. We think our robust and ready Cabernet calls for a toast. So let's raise a glass to richness that's readily available. Bare it all."

My Review: On the nose, I detect faint caramel notes and a strong tannic profile. Crazy berry flavors are present in this wine- lots of blueberry, blackberry, and big jammy notes. It's dry, but also very very fruity. It's a great wine to keep on top of the fridge (Sorry, Boyer) and have a glass while watching your favorite TV shows.
