At 87.5% Cabernet Sauvignon and 12.5% Petit Verdot, from an average of 21-year-old vines, the 2021 Paso Robles Cabernet Sauvignon is quite a balanced example—the alcohol a mere 13.4 – very polite for a Paso Cab. It tastes of ripe red fruit (plums, cherries, currants); friendly vanilla and baking spice speak to some oak. There’s almost a cola note, too, though, which is super fun. The mouth brings clingy but introverted tannins; you might not think of them unless you are thinking of them, but you notice them hanging on if you do.

Very impressed with this wine at the price point it’s at. Spicy earthy tones balanced well with big fruit, dry lingering finish

Tasty, great value, Cab. What more does one want and still get change from a Jackson? Ripe, dark and juicy but also approachable with soft tannins.

A rush of super-ripe dark cherry, tobacco, licorice and plum give the 2017 Cabernet Sauvignon from Foxglove its racy personality. Voluptuous in the glass, with silky tannins and soft contours, it will be impossible to resist upon release. One of the best values in California Cabernet Sauvignon.

The 2014 Cabernet Sauvignon from Foxglove hits the palate with notable depth and intensity. Dark red cherry, plum, mint, spice and leather shape the juicy, resonant finish. Drink this bold Paso Robles Cabernet over the next 2-3 years. (Antonio Galloni, Vinous)
