Heather Wall rated this wine as 90/100 with the following review:

Take note for the collector in your life. A delicious Napa Cabernet Sauvignon that will keep rewarding for years to come and not break the budget. Highly concentrated black fruit with mocha, baker's chocolate, baking spices and graphite. Some evident tannins and good acid/fruit ratio. Pair this with a premium cut of beef and it's a match made in heaven.
Tasted: Sept 2015

Matt Steeves rated this wine as 92/100 with the following review:

Ray Signorello is well known for premium Napa wine production and the Fuse is his value-priced project that helps make their incredible wines that much more accessible to those that love premium Napa but don't way to pay the ultra premium price. Black core with a deep ruby rib, the 2012 Fuse is packed full of deep concentrated black fruit, dried figs, plums, dark cherries, chocolate, with intriguing tar and charcoal notes. Very well balanced, this Napa Cabernet delivers on quality, complexity, and value! A super smart buy and highly recommended for cellaring. Drink 2015-2025. Tasted September 2015. 92 points.

Natalie's Review

Fuse Cabernet Sauvignon 2012, Napa Valley, California, United States: A full-bodied Californian Cabernet with black currant and cassis notes. Very dry on the palate and finish, creating almost a chalky sensation. Pair with a rare steak. Drink: 2014-2018. 214817 14.70% XD 750 mL $80.00 Score: 89/100.
