US | Dry and silky in texture, but there's not much else going on, except for modest cherry, tobacco and herb flavors. | 82 | 8.0 | California | 14 |
US | The estate vineyard is in the Vaca Mountains, east of the city of Napa. You can taste the cool climate in the brisk acidity that frames this 100% Cabernet Sauvignon. It's very ripe in blackberries, with rich layers of toast from new French oak. For all the sweet fruit, the finish is dry, even rasping. Such are the tannins that the wine feels tough, even at this age. Give it another five years, at least. | 94 | 195.0 | California | 3 |
US | Brimming with ripe black plum and cherry flavors, this densely concentrated wine is unabashedly fruity and forward. It's well balanced though, showcasing crisp acidity and nuanced hints of rose petal and granite. Fine-grained but penetrating tannins persist on the finish. | 88 | 24.0 | New York | 10 |
Spain | Concentrated and rich up front, this has black fruit aromas of prune, blackberry and cassis, with notes of beef and herb. It feels full bodied, filling all corners of the palate. Flavors of black cherry, plum and black currant are ripe, while jammy characteristics of fruit cake and prune work the mellow finish. A blend of 60% Tempranillo, 30% Cabernet and 10% Merlot. | 91 | 19.0 | Northern Spain | 17 |
