Avalon Cab

Spottswoode

Family Estate Grown St. Helena Cabernet Sauvignon 2018

2018 vintage. Last tasted 12.5.25 (9.4), 1.31.25 (9.4) and 10.27.23 (9.4). Bigg stuff...which is something I never would have said about Spottswoode vintages back in the 80's and 90's. The new premium Coravin btg Napa Cab. 3.19.26. — 8 days ago

40th Anniversary Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon 2023

North of my typical price point, this was quite expressive for a cab. Robust fruit flavor, yet smooth. Other bottles suit my palate better. — a month ago

Silver Oak

Alexander Valley Cabernet Sauvignon 2021

Solid Sonoma Cab that tastes like Left Bank Bordeaux. Supple feel, dark berries, cedar, graphite, tobacco. A little eucalyptus and a little espresso. Lengthy tannins. Drinkable now and will age for some time.

No, the wine was nice! Just pulling the Radiohead song that was on at that moment 😀 But @Anthony De Blasi was going for it!

Alt/art electro rock + silver oak you can't go wrong with that combo!

Frank Family Vineyards

Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon

Exceptional value in the 50 to 60 neighborhood for a Napa cab that drinks like wines twice the price, pure pleasure, no apologies. If this hits your palate just right we can explore similar powerhouses together. Reminds me of Austin Hope Paso Robles cab or the Frank Family Rutherford Reserve - which is a bit higher. — 6 days ago

Daou Vineyards

Paso Robles Cabernet Sauvignon 2023

Richly sweet flavor profile of berry and cherry, with hints of spice and smokiness. Heavy but to too much so. Very smooth finish. A high quality wine, and more enjoyable than other Cab Sauvs that I’ve tried. — 6 days ago

Jordan Vineyard & Winery

Alexander Valley Cabernet Sauvignon 2020

On the nose I get black currant, cedar, leather, anise. Elegant and lighter than you might expect from California Cab. A long, lingering finish with toothy tannins and noticeable oak. I’m drinking it on its own but it would be fantastic with meat or cheese. — 3 days ago

Grgich Hills Estate

Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon 2020

Smooth and rich Napa Cab, heavy notes of fruit and licorice on the initial taste, floral and spice on the nose, decent finish; not chewy like some Napa cabs. Paired well with spicy penne pasta. — 2 months ago
