Dark cherry and blackcurrant lead, with vanilla and a hint of mocha around the edges. The berry fruit stays soft on the palate, where savory herbs add a counterpoint to the dark-fruit profile. A gentle smoky note lingers with the fruit in the finish.

Research notes
The producer technical sheet identifies California, 100% Cabernet Sauvignon, fermentation with grape skins for 14 days, aging with French oak, and less than 0.5% alcohol by volume. Miller Family Wines describes pressing, fermentation and aging before alcohol removal using BevZero spinning cone technology, followed by blending. Its product-store ABV field instead reads 0.00%; that disagreement is retained, not silently reconciled. The technical sheet says nutritional information is available upon request, so no calorie or sugar values are supplied here. French oak does not establish barrel aging.

Where sources disagree
Sources disagree on the following points.
- ABV: The producer technical sheet says contains less than 0.5% alcohol by volume. The Miller Family Wines product-store ABV field says 0.00%. This profile retains the technical sheet’s ceiling, with the disagreement unresolved; it does not claim an exact zero residual.
- Ingredients: Framing conflict (2026-10-06): applied retailer declaration ("alcohol removed Cabernet Sauvignon wine, grape juice concentrate, and artificial flavors") vs producer's 100% Cabernet framing. Retailer-tier value applied as printed.
