Paso Robles Cabernet Sauvignon 2021

What a phenomenal wine. Great color, smooth, full body, tons of flavor. Our favorite wine and at a price point that is affordable for special occasions ($50). Edges out another in this vein, Caterwaul. Cheers — a month ago

Château Musar

Musar Jeune Rouge Cabernet Sauvignon Blend 2020

Blend is actually 50% Cinsault, 35% Syrah and 15% Cabernet Sauvignon. Very dark inky ruby color with purple highlights. Aromas of black and blue berry fruit, violets and tobacco. The rich palate features flavors of cooked black cherry, blueberry and black berry/currant fruit with notes of sweet spices and black pepper. Long and lingering finish and a lovely soft/silky texture. No sign of oak aging. Acidity is plentiful but well balanced. Quite fresh and bright! Solid QPR. — 3 months ago
