Flight 1 (8 Notes)

  • 2009 Cass Viognier 90 Points

    USA, California, Central Coast, Paso Robles

    Shy nose. Rich, slightly oily but not overboard, perfumed. A little orange, and some grapefruit on the finish. Acidic. Juicy and food-friendly. $22

  • 2009 Cass Roussanne 92 Points

    USA, California, Central Coast, Paso Robles

    Mouthwatering nose, with apricots and peaches. Round but not sweet, very acidic, delicious. Slightly oily, with a hint of pears. Very long. No bitterness. Excellent wine. $26

  • 2009 Cass Oasis 89 Points

    USA, California, Central Coast, Paso Robles

    Pretty nose, crisp strawberry. Juicy. Round sweetness with a balancing acidity, but not anything super-crisp. Good, but there are better for the $22 pricepoint.

  • 2008 Cass Grenache 82 Points

    USA, California, Central Coast, Paso Robles

    Cheap nose. Very light color, roséish. Very simple, with candied fruit, chocolate notes and a slight bitterness. Very disappointing, especially for $32.

  • 2008 Cass Mourvèdre 86 Points

    USA, California, Central Coast, Paso Robles

    Open nose. Spicy, easy quaffer with noticeable residual sugar. Very ripe and plummy, but no alcohol burn. Poor QPR at $38.

  • 2007 Cass Syrah 86 Points

    USA, California, Central Coast, Paso Robles

    Simple nose. Cabby. Fairly unstructured. Pleasant, but surprisingly simple for the price. Noticeable residual sugar again. $36

  • 2007 Cass Cabernet Sauvignon 90 Points

    USA, California, Central Coast, Paso Robles

    Black fruit dominates. Smooth, but somewhat structured. Slightly simple but delicious. Creamy and ripe. Extracted flavors, with currants. Still, a pass at $45.
