4/20/2024 - Schiffy Likes this wine: 97 pointsBig, fruit forward, and classic Napa cult Cabernet. Ripe, dark blackberry with with notes of dark chocolate, cassis and tobacco. Hints of vanilla and spice along with silky/sweet tannins on the finish. Delicious! Do you find this review helpful? Yes - No / Comments (2) |

4/12/2024 - sonodoc Likes this wine: 96 pointsAs always, the Buccella Cabernets are big opulent Napa Cabs. Dark and rich, with plenty of red and black fruit, cocoa, cassis, and oak, I thought that for me the taste was a little overpowered by charred oak and could use more time in the bottle, however of the four of us, the two women preferred this wine over the more subtle but stunning 2018 Schrader CCS. |

3/11/2024 - Heinrich Von Blumpkinstein Likes this wine: 97 pointsCandied blueberries, almost syrupy but not nearly thick enough to warrant that type of descriptor. Soooooo balanced that I almost can't believe this isn't an even pricier bottle. |

3/8/2024 - sonodoc Likes this wine: 94 pointsBig dark and rich, flavorful mix of red and black fruit. Very enjoyable. I find the Buccella Cabs to be consistently good each year, and as mentioned before, the bottle is incredibly heavy, feeling as heavy empty as some bottles feel when full. |

3/8/2024 - shafer1994 Likes this wine: 93 pointsImpressive! Has already a ripeness combined with depth. Bouquet of dark fruit, chocolate, vanilla. Long and silky finish although the tannins still have some grip. |

2/17/2024 - Experienced palate wrote: 92 pointsGreat winery, love their bottles, so heavy but the wine can be so good it's a disappointment because you believe there is more left but it's empty. This wine is perhaps on the downward slope. Still a nice with good complexity with good balance however I personally prefer slightly more youthful cabs with a bit more backbone. The older fruit is apparent. Drink up and enjoy for sure don't decant. PNP. |

12/29/2023 - Cablover1982 Likes this wine: 93 pointsNice dark color. Plenty of blackberries, plums and cherry. Hints of spices, oak, and chocolate. Pretty nice acid, firm tannins on a medium finish. This particular isn’t all there yet. I’ll wait to try my 2nd bottle in a year or two. |

12/21/2023 - RobbieD68 Likes this wine: 90 pointsIt's interesting. I opened and let it aerate for half an hour, which i think was a good idea. That allowed some of the funk to blow off, and allowed the licorice and berry flavors to shine through. Charcoal, and some plum layered in there also. Definitely needs the 30-45 minutes to settle down. |

12/16/2023 - Rixon Likes this wine: 93 pointsMörkt röd. Medel syra och tanniner. Mörka bär, en svag ton av mint. På gränsen till hög alkohol. Förvånansvärt ungt och hade vunnit på vila i några år till. Men en utmärkt cab. |

12/10/2023 - Bobbusch Likes this wine: 92 pointsHad with a bone in rib eye. Still good fruit showing through. The tannins are well integrated resulting in a smooth wine. I don’t think the wine will benefit from further aging . |

11/25/2023 - AllRed wrote: 94 points4th Saturday Group: Uptown Brown Bag (V&M's): Blind. Opens with an elegant perfumed floral quality, almost potpourri-like. Notes of black fruit, plum and chocolate are apparent under the floral notes. Full-bodied, with medium tannin and flavors of plum, espresso powder, black fruit and chocolate. Finishes with good length. Balanced. |

11/24/2023 - Geaux Tigers wrote: 92 pointsRestaurant purchase. One hr decant at cellar temps. Young. Too young even with an hour of air. Seems to have potential but hints of blackberry and raspberry were hidden behind a tall wall of tannins and structure. 92 as is, likely will age at the pace of the ‘13, so wait 5 yrs minimum for mid-upper 90s potential. |
