Reviews and Ratings

Carolyn Hetke rated this wine as 90/100 with the following review:

Classic black raspberry with layers of cedar, mint and barnyard on the nose. Earthy black fruit on the palate. Smooth and concentrated with tannins well in check. Full-bodied and smooth, this will be a versatile choice for sipping with charcuterie or accompanying beef or bean stews. Tasted Dec 2019. www.thewineloverskitchen.com
Linda Mertes WSET 2 rated this wine as 89/100 with the following review:

A medium-bodied California Central Coast Cabernet Sauvignon, with oak aging evident in the aromas along with black berry fruit- wood and leather. Blueberries on the palate and well-balanced acidity and tannins. A smoky, tobacco finish. Serve with savoury beef dishes like Italian ragout or German rouladen.
From Central Coast, California, Ravel & Stitch 2017 is a full-bodied Cabernet Sauvignon blend with splashes of Barbera, Petite Sirah, Petit Verdot and Malbec added giving this juicy red brambleberry, earthy violets spicy, smoky flavours from oak treatment. Great acidity for food. Tannins are structured. Pair with grilled beef prime ribs. - Community Wine Reviews

Natalie MacLean is a new force in the wine writing world ‐ a feisty North American answer to Hugh Johnson and Jancis Robinson. She can write beautifully about wine.

The Financial Times of London
