Three Thieves Cabernet Sauvignon is one we have not tried before. It has a tartness that we have not not experienced with other wines. But, the kicker is it remains smooth as you drink it. In other words, it does not make us pucker our lips like a lemon slice does. Interesting for us.... both Winos agree to purchase this one again!
Assessment: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10

A web log started by two Wine Enthusiasts, synonym for "Winos". Its intent is to log our thoughts and opinions about inexpensive wines available at local grocery and beverage stores. Our hope is to prevent other "Winos" from making the same mistakes we made with our wine purchases.
