A juicy, robust Californian Cabernet bursting with aromas and flavours of fleshy black plum, blackberry and cassis all nicely wrapped in toasty oak. Perfect for a steak or prime rib.

Reviews and Ratings

Monique Sosa - Accredited Sommelier rated this wine as 89/100 with the following review:

Dark ripe inviting fruit aromas pave the way to a smooth mouthfeel, moderate integrated tannins, and an uber 'berrylicious' flavours. Overall, it's a simple classic take on fruit forward California Cabernet Sauvignon and an amazing wine to pair with smoky BBQ eats. Tasted June 2017 by @sommsosa | bespoketastings.ca
Wineboy rated this wine as 88/100 with the following review:

Very fruit driven Cali CS. Fruit over oak in this one with a touch more alcohol perceived on the palate. Well made. Only thing I didn't like was the price.
California Napa Cellars (2014) is a solid Cabernet Sauvignon from the Napa Valley. Lots of ripe black fruit, smoke and blackberry liqueur here. Best with a rare cut of steak. - Community Wine Reviews
