Graham Beck The Game Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon 2013, Robertson, Western Cape W.O., South Africa: An attractive rich deep red hue in the glass. Aromas of dark spice and blackberry from start to finish. The former name of this wine was The Gamekeeper’s Reserve, but the wine remains as great as ever. Long finish infused with cedar smoke. Lovely cedar-rich, mint, blackberry aromas on the nose of this robust, deep red wine. Full-bodied and smooth with a kick that keeps you coming back to the glass. Pair with reading the book Out of Africa. Drink: 2014-2018. 2519 14% D 750 mL $18.95 Score: 90/100. February 8, 2016
