It's fruit forward and drinkable but lacks depth and complexity - for drinking now as it probably won't age well.
A couple of weeks ago I was at Hess Collection in Napa and liked their 2012 cab ($55) - it was more of the classic cab with some fruit in the center surrounded by a little oak and soft tannins.
Reisling? My wife likes it and it goes well with spicy Asian food, but not a wine I would drink often.
