Note: I publish batches of reviews that I call Good Values Wine Picks. These are from the regular section of the liquor store rather than the Vintages section, and tend to be lower priced and the most widely available of all wines. The last four reviews I did were: March 7, January 4, December 16 and November 20.

Tasting note:

A big, full-bodied red with black fruit and smoke. Good grippy tannins and a satisfyingly long finish. Food matches: hearty beef and root vegetable stew.

Opinions about wine differ greatly as the experience is subjective. You may find it helpful to compare this critical evaluation of the wine with mine as well as your own:

Kuyam - A Place to rest together The landscape of the Cuyama Valley appears much as it did more than 400 years ago when Chumash Indians inhabited the area. Today, the high elevation terrain is home to Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Petite Verdot, Cabernet Franc, and Malbec that inspire the wines of Kuyam. A blend of 37% Merlot, 37% Cabernet Sauvignon, 13% Petite Verdot, 9% Cabernet Franc and 4% Malbec from Santa Barbara Highlands.
