Matt Steeves rated this wine as 89/100 with the following review:

+ A crowd pleasing and value-priced California Cabernet that's showing wonderfully now. 100% Cabernet Sauvignon sourced from seven of California's renowned wine regions, including Napa Valley. It's velvety smooth and packed full of dark berry, cassis, baking spices, and fresh herbs on the nose and palate. A great wine to enjoy with BBQ, braised dishes, cocktail receptions, or after a hard day's work. Also available in full size bottles at LCBO. Tasted January 2016. 89+ points.

Pam Hatton rated this wine as 89/100 with the following review:

Deep bread and the glass with layers of cherry, Black Forest cake, blackberries and cassis. Some smoke and spice as you swirl the glass around. His medium body on the palate where all these dark fruits come through. Quite concentrated with balanced acidity and soft tannins. Typical California cab with a bit of sweetness. Would be lovely with a roast beef dinner or gourmet burgers.

Joel Gott Wines 815 Cabernet Sauvignon 2019, California, United States: Joel Gott 815 2019 Cabernet Sauvignon is just the right size (375 ml) for one to savour when a glass or two of wine is all you want. Doesn't break the wine budget either at $15. California winemaker, Joel Gott is well-known for the quality of wine he produces and this California Cabernet Sauvignon produced from grapes sourced from the Lodi, Mendocino, Monterey, Napa, Sonoma and Paso Robles is easy to enjoy with lots of dark fruit flavours, dark cherry, earthy, savoury herbs, mint and olive with a kiss of spice on the palate. Tannins are velvety. Drink: 2022-2025. 20717 14.20% D 375 mL  $15.95 Score: 92/100. January 21, 2023 Top Rated Red Wine. Remarkable Roast Chicken Wine  Full Review

Unquenchable by Natalie MacLean

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

There are very few people in the wine world who "get it" and Natalie is one of those who brings more fun to a buttoned-up and stodgy game.
