2013 Rivers-Marie Cabernet Sauvignon Corona Vineyard, USA, California, Napa, Oakville, Wine Review
2023 Rombauer Vineyards Sauvignon Blanc, USA, California, Wine Reeview
This is a blend of 73% Sonoma County and 27% Napa County. Light green/gold in color, clear and bright. The nose is nice with yellow grapefruit and guava. Clean. Light to medium bodied. Nice texture. Good balance. On the palate, the tart grapefruit comes thru (in a good way) with a bit of guava. Nice finish. This drinks well on its own and will work well with lighter foods. Fish Tacos would be a nice match. Drink over the next few years.

2016 Scarecrow Cabernet Sauvignon, USA, California, Napa, Rutherford, Wine Review
Wow. An incredible wine. it is 100% Cabernet Sauvignon from Napa, California. Inky purple in color, opaque and shimmering bright. The nose is great with cassis, graphite, cedar, blueberries, spices and dark chocolate. Full bodied. Firm tannins. This is young but starting to develop nicely. Great balance and energy. On the palate, flavors of cassis, blueberries, chocolate, char and slight cigar. Long finish. Complex and layered, it opens quickly in the glass. This will continue to evolve but is a masterpiece right now. Drink over the next twenty to thirty years.
Turnbull 2021 Oakville Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon
When Turnbull launched in 1979 it was with the goal of producing excellent Cabernet Sauvignon. Of course, at the time there was a lot of excellent Cabernet in the market. But as many Napa Cabernets chose to make enormous and heavy-handed wines, Turnbull chose a different direction. The craftsmanship of this is an homage to Old-School Napa Cabernet - those wines not often made anymore that truly prized the plot of land and extolled the fruit over the use of high brix and lots of oak. So if you want to taste Cabernet the way it used to be, this will complement any occasion.
