| Community Tasting Notes (average 91.2 pts. and median of 91 pts. in 19 notes) - hiding notes with no text | | | Tasted by oncocyte on 1/16/2022 & rated 93 points: Adolescent wine, bursting with flavor, tannin, and energy. Working hard on coordination, mannerly behavior and tannin control. Give it eight+ years. Will be 95 pts then. (441 views) | | | Tasted by Odedis.Wine.reviews on 9/29/2020 & rated 95 points: Dark ruby in color with a short purple rim.
Great nose of blueberries, cooked cherries, cedar, leather, earth, vanilla, licorice, spices, chocolates, coke, tobacco, light alcohol, mocha and black pepper.
Full bodied with medium acidity and long legs.
Dry on the palate with blackberries, cooked cherries, dried figs, raisins, vanilla, cedar, licorice, mocha, coke and peppercorn.
Long finish with fine grained tannins and tangy cherries.
This 10 year old Cabernet Sauvignon is drinking wonderfully, right out of the bottle. Very tasty and enjoyable by itself.
Very complex with a great mouthfeel. Rich and smooth. Awesome nose, that I kept smelling on for a long time.
This would have been even better if we had a couple of hours to open it up properly, but it was gone so quickly.
Robert Parker 94 points.
Delicious now and will continue to drink nicely in the next 5 years.
Good by itself or with food. I paired it with beef kebabs.
A blend of 83% Cabernet Sauvignon, 8% Syrah, 7% Petit Verdot and 2% Malbec.
14.5% alcohol by volume.
95 points.
$55 (current vintage). (1070 views) | | | Tasted by EMTAME on 3/2/2018 & rated 89 points: Benefitted from 45 min. of air. Nice, slightly old school profile on the palate with a medium-full body. A bit short in the finish. (1767 views) | | | Tasted by ettalovesgoodwine on 9/28/2017 & rated 88 points: If it had been properly stored it would have had a higher rating. (1946 views) | | | Tasted by andreguima on 9/23/2016 & rated 94 points: Almost perfect wine! Tight mix of loamy earth, dark berry, mocha, cedar and dried herb, finishing with a dry, cleansing aftertaste. (2410 views) | | | Tasted by joehwpg on 5/28/2016 & rated 91 points: Very good. Stood up to a beautiful grilled steak. Almost buttery mouth feel. Still some fruit on the nose. Hint of white pepper lingers to a long finish (2268 views) | | | Tasted by pugblanc on 4/14/2016 & rated 97 points: Honeysuckle vanilla perfume rhubarb cranberry chocolate with a hint of musk. That is just the nose. Dark intensity. Sweet honey vanilla chocolate light prune cranberry Cherry buttery peach with a mild oak bite. White pepper. It is a lovely explosion of well blended flavored. Our ideal wine. (2000 views) | | | Tasted by pugblanc on 3/7/2016 & rated 88 points: Very elegant. Soapy florals. Rasberry Cherry. Rich undertone of of loam mushroom and cocoa. Merlot stand out on mid palette. Drink now for fruit. Or hold at least a two years for a more tobacco leather rich treat. (1416 views) | | | Tasted by mgstull on 5/12/2015 & rated 88 points: Red purple. This bottle showed fairly one dimensional favors with red and blue fruit, a bit of tobacco, and smooth tannins. (1667 views) | | | Tasted by Jeff Leve on 11/16/2013 & rated 90 points: Blending 83% Cabernet Sauvignon, 8% Syrah, 7% Petit Verdot and 2% Malbec, the wine opens with espresso bean, vanilla, blackberries, cassis and earthy notes. This should be better in a few years. You can expect a lot of work to begin taking place in the vineyard and cellars over the next few years at Newton. (3414 views) | | | Tasted by JonnyG on 11/8/2013 & rated 91 points: Lovely fruit and cedar notes. Quite layered, though a bit syrupy at this stage. Should benefit from a few more years' aging.

Read more about NewtonCabernet SauvignonCabernet Sauvignon is probably the most famous red wine grape variety on Earth. It is rivaled in this regard only by its Bordeaux stablemate Merlot, and its opposite number in Burgundy, Pinot Noir. From its origins in Bordeaux, Cabernet has successfully spread to almost every winegrowing country in the world. It is now the key grape variety in many first-rate New World wine regions, most notably Napa Valley, Coonawarra and Maipo Valley. Wherever they come from, Cabernet Sauvignon wines always seem to demonstrate a handful of common character traits: deep color, good tannin structure, moderate acidity and aromas of blackcurrant, tomato leaf, dark spices and cedarwood.
Used as frequently in blends as in varietal wines, Cabernet Sauvignon has a large number of common blending partners. Apart from the obvious Merlot and Cabernet Franc, the most prevalent of these are Malbec, Petit Verdot and Carmenere (the ingredients of a classic Bordeaux Blend), Shiraz (in Australia's favorite blend) and in Spain and South America, a Cabernet – Tempranillo blend is now commonplace. Even the bold Tannat-based wines of Madiran are now generally softened with Cabernet SauvignonUSAAmerican wine has been produced since the 1500s, with the first widespread production beginning in New Mexico in 1628. Today, wine production is undertaken in all fifty states, with California producing 84% of all U.S. wine. The continent of North America is home to several native species of grape, including Vitis labrusca, Vitis riparia, Vitis rotundifolia, and Vitis vulpina, but the wine-making industry is based almost entirely on the cultivation of the European Vitis vinifera, which was introduced by European settlers. With more than 1,100,000 acres (4,500 km2) under vine, the United States is the fourth-largest wine producing country in the world, after Italy, Spain, and France.California2021 vintage: "Unlike almost all other areas of the state, the Russian River Valley had higher than normal crops in 2021, which has made for a wine of greater generosity and fruit forwardness than some of its stablemates." - Morgan Twain-Peterson Napa Valley Napa Valley Wineries and Wine (Napa Valley Vintners)Napa ValleySt. Helena |
