This used to be a go to wine but it had been about 15 years since tried. Still a very nice Cab for the money. Purple in color, ruby at the rim, opaque and bright. The nose has cassis, cedar and spice. Medium to full bodied. On the palate, nice cassis fruit. Drink over the next couple of years. A nice wine for a party or cook-out. It works well on its own and will work nicely with burgers or other foods off the grill.
Heritage School is what used to be known as Harris Estate Wines. David and Linda Jenkins purchased the property in 2014 and renamed the winery and the three vineyards on the property. Thomas Rivers Brown is the winemaker. I was able to taste a couple of these wines and both were excellent. Purple in color, ruby at the rim. The nose has black cherries, cassis and baking spice. Maybe a touch of soy sauce. On the palate, this has a pretty texture. Cassis and black cherries over an interesting chalky base along with some baking spices. Good balance. Firm tannins. Nice finish.

This is a very nice value for those looking for a reasonably priced California Cabernet. It is from Paso Robles, an area generally not known for its Cabs. Dark ruby in color. The nose has cherries and slight kirsch notes along with some baking spice and a bit of vanilla. On the palate, this is medium bodied with good acidity. Cherries with some oak. Medium finish. This will improve over the next couple of years as it integrates and should be good for five to seven after that. A nice with with grilled burgers.
