Mina Mesa – Cabernet Sauvignon Hazeline Reserve 2021
Paso Robles AVA – California, USA 🇺🇸

Overview
A family-owned project led by Troy Javadi in Paso Robles’ Tin City, Mina Mesa crafts approachable, fruit-driven wines that celebrate California’s Central Coast terroir. This bottling is 100% Cabernet Sauvignon from Hazeline Reserve vineyards.

Aromas & Flavors
Dark concentrated berries, ripe black currant, and plum layered with subtle hints of vanilla and spice.

Mouthfeel
Full-bodied and generous with smooth tannins and a long, juicy finish. Bold yet crafted to remain approachable and balanced.

Food Pairings
Perfect with grilled ribeye, braised short ribs, smoky BBQ, or a hearty mushroom risotto.

Verdict
A Paso Cab that overdelivers—lush, bold fruit meets structure, showing both richness and easy drinkability. A true expression of the Central Coast spirit. Cheers!

God Chablis. Mineral och ljus frukt. Smakar något kraftigare än väntat med hög syra. Kommer kanske ändå inte upp i paritet med mina favoritviner. — 6 years ago

Ah. 💯👌🏽🙏🏼 Detta är det mest prisvärda vin under 300 jag druckit. Och jag kan mina moderat prissatta viner. Detta är jordgubbar, svart te, barrskog, honung. Så lent men ändå en del tanniner i flabben. — 8 years ago

Vingård planeter 1945. Bush vines. 17 var ett svalare år tydligen och vinet kändes något svalare än vad jag väntade mig. Fina komplexa doft- och smaklager. Mörka och ljusa bär, pastill, torkade citrusskal, blomjord. Bra längd. Först ut bland mina dyrare sommarviner. Värt 795 kr? Nja. — 5 years ago
