Reviews and Ratings

Monique Sosa - Accredited Sommelier rated this wine as 91/100 with the following review:

Deep ruby red appearance with plum, cassis, leather, and mocha notes. This is a full-bodied dry developing California Cab Sauv with a rich structured flavours, young developing tannins and balanced acidity. Decant for one hour prior to serving. Enjoy with seared beef tenderloin. Tasted Feb 2017 - @sommsosa | bespoketastings.ca
Monica rated this wine as 90/100
Joseph Carr is known as the 'negociant' of California wineries and worked for 20 years as a sommelier before owning his own Napa Valley Winery. His 2013 Cabernet Sauvignon has rich, ripe dark fruit on it with good acidity, and a savoury finishing with a lingering minerality. Well-structured, balanced and well done. - Community Wine Reviews
