Natalie's Score: 90/100

Tapiz Alta Collection, San Pablo Vineyard 2018 Cabernet Sauvignon is produced from sustainably-grown grapes. Dry, full-bodied, rich and concentrated on the palate with blueberry, ripe blackberry, cocoa and espresso coffee flavours matched with vibrant acidity. Tannins are firm and grippy. Decant for a couple hours prior to pouring it with a juicy rib roast.

Cabernet Sauvignon food pairings: roast pork, burgers and ribs, grilled game sausages.

Reviews and Ratings

Trent Mayers rated this wine as 93/100 with the following review:

The most famous red from Argentina is Malbec, but Cabernet Sauvignon may soon catch up. The high altitude vineyards in the Uco Valley in Mendoza have produced a red with incredible ripeness balanced by remarkable acidity. This single vineyard wine is dry, delicious, and full bodied. It illustrates the aromas and flavours that have made Cabernet so popular. Expect intense cassis, blackberry, black cherry, tobacco, vanilla, and mint with earthy underbrush on the finish. Lovely addition to a meal with spice rubbed pork roast, steak, or mushrooms roasted with olive oil and thyme.
4+ stars out of 5
