Enjoy these six bottles of Cabernet and Cabernet Blends from Around the World - same varietal, different styles and flavor profiles, wonderful wines, including some that are scarce and hard to find!"
2013 Clark Claudon Cabernet Estate, Napa, California
"Delicious dark fruit, tar and earthy mineral flavors and aromas. Still evolving but works perfectly with a grilled steak right now. Delicious!" The name Clark-Claudon and the logo's meeting of the two feathers represent a joint commitment to the pursuit of their dream and to the preservation of the environment that supports it. Clark-Claudon Vineyards has received critical acclaim for their Estate Grown Cabernet. 91+points
2020 Aperture Red Blend, Red Bordeaux blend, Sonoma, California
"The 2020 Bordeaux Red Blend is composed of 33% Cabernet Sauvignon, 28% Malbec, 28% Merlot and 11% Cabernet Franc, matured in 45% new French oak for 18 months. Medium to deep ruby-purple in color, it is scented of blueberries and red and black cherries with nuances of graphite, spice and tea leaves, continuing to blossom aromatically as it spends time in the glass. The medium-bodied palate is velvety and refreshing with alluringly floral fruit and a long, layered finish. Restrained and easy to drink, it's a great success in a challenging vintage. Drink 2024 - 2034" 97 Points, Wine Advocate
2019 Quilceda Creek CVR Columbia Valley, Washington State
"Delicious dark fruit, velvety blackberry, chocolate, cedar flavors, silky and smooth texture. This is the "baby sibling" of the classic Quilceda Cabernet, and it possesses all the classic Quilceda flavor and profile." 92+ points
2012 Chateau Fleur Cardinale, St. Emilion Grand Cru, France
"The 2012 Fleur Cardinale is a beautiful example of modern Saint-Emilion. Silky tannins and soft contours wrap around a core of red cherry jam, wild flowers, mint, cinnamon and white pepper. Dramatic and expansive on the palate, the 2012 shows remarkable nuance for such an intense wine. All the elements fall into place effortlessly." 93 Points, Vinous
2016 Tolaini Cabernet Legit, Toscana IGT, Tuscany, Italy
";An impressive red of breadth and depth, featuring black cherry, plum, leather, earth, iron and cedar aromas and flavors. This is solidly built and well-balanced, with finely honed tannins and lively acidity providing backbone. Best from 2021 V through 2040. Highly Recommended" 95 Points, Wine Spectator
2016 Caiarossa Toscana IGT, Tuscany, Italy
"This wine is a blend of seven grapes-42% Cabernet Franc, 25% Merlot, 15.5% Syrah, 6% Cabernet Sauvignon, 6% Petit Verdot, 4.5% Sangiovese and 1% Alicante. The bouquet presents a beautiful first wave of dark fruit that pushes the limits of ripeness but remains safely within the realm of elegance. The aromas are balanced and focused with blackberry, cassis, and light touches of salty or rusty mineral. The wine is not too constructed or big in the mouth, rather it shows a delicate level of elegances that absolutely seals the deal. Drink Date 2020 - 2040." 96 Points, Wine Advocate
