2018 Beau Vigne Cabernet Sauvignon LegacyNapa Valley more |
6/26/2021 - Xer90 wrote: 92 pointsOne could easily do a doubletake on this wine & think it came directly from Chuck Wagner at Caymus. Not SS quality, but certainly at entry level Caymus Cab Sauv. A lush and delectable sweetness sweeps through this wine. Ripe red cherry and skin, blackberry preserve, cassis, cola nut and a cool mineral presence throughout, all perfectly balanced. Round soft tannins. Amazing how the new French oak has integrated so nicely in such a short period of time. Beau Vigne is surely a standout in the $30 Napa Cab price category. Very nice indeed. |

2012 Iron Door Cabernet Sauvignon Special SelectionAlexander Valley more |
5/24/2018 - VinoHunter Likes this wine: 88 pointsWTSO wine. I have a theory and maybe I am not the only to have this theory. I enjoy sites like WTSO and Last Bottle. But I have noticed that wines offered by WTSO that don’t have a winery website are hit and miss. This is one of those wines. For $20 this wine checks all the boxes. Decent fruits, minimal tannins, easy drinking. This wine is a wine that you take to your friends that don’t know any better and your tell them, “This is a cab from California and its $20.” It does have some classic Alexander Valley flavors, but at every sip you just want more. Decent stuff, but better wine out there for the price. I don’t see it getting any better so I will put the other three bottles ahead in the rotation...

8/5/2016 - stags22 Likes this wine: NRLiquid sky??? More like liquid gold. Excellent find by wine spies. In an informal blind tasting of 4, this was a favorite. Extraordinary nose and a long delicious finish. Creamy dark chocolate. Loved

2013 Maroon Cabernet Sauvignon Signature Reserve Yountvillemore |
9/14/2015 - xxquadxx Does not like this wine: 69 pointsI'm a huge fan of Maroon wines. Their top of the line stuff is excellent. This was a huge disappointing mistake. It was decanted 6+ hours. I just don't understand how you can take grapes from the perfect '13 vintage and make this junk which is reminiscent of rubbing alcohol and a spoon of sugar added to it. Zero structure, no balance whatsoever and no finish at all - simply abysmal! I paid $20 for it - what I waste! Now I have 3 more bottles to give as "presents" to people who know nothing about wine.

2010 Amusee Cabernet Sauvignon Reserve Alexander Valleymore |
4/17/2013 - Mattshank wrote: 87 pointsNose: Bright red fruits and vanilla. Palate: Soft styled with surprisingly bright red fruits for a Cab. Decent acid levels but not much complexity and a light finish. OK food wine but even at $20/btl this is not worth the price. Another WTSO wine that is not worth it. Just OK.
