A perennial "Best Seller" in restaurants, and a very fine value in Washington Cabernet. 14 Hands Cabernet Sauvignon features aromas of red currants and raspberries with subtle hints of spice. Spiced cherry & plum flavors are joined by notes of cocoa and complemented by fine velvety tannins. A little Merlot, Cabernet Franc, Syrah and Petit Verdot help drive the fruit forward and keep things soft and lush.

Ray Signorello's estate wines run in the $50 category, but even top winemakers need a nice bottle of Cab for parties or weeknight supper! Ray sources grapes for this from friends and neighbors and makes it in a fruit-filled, easy-drinking, style. Loads of juicy blackcurrant and red berry fruit are accented by a dash of chocolate and hint of licorice aromas and flavors. Round and stylish in the mouth, notes of cranberry and cherry liquor linger nicely in the end over bright acidity and fine tannin. A very fine burger or lamb chop bottle that you can just sip on all night long.

From the winery: Beautifully balanced, with attractive aromas of black fruit and spice. On the nose it presents an attractive mix of red and black fruit of currants, cherry and blackberry layered with spicy notes of anise, vanilla and with a subtle cedar character from an American oak influence. Complex with bright fruit of blackcurrant, cherry, and boysenberry mixed with licorice and subtle cedar notes on a long finish.
- Martin Ray Cabernet Sauvignon Sonoma County 2010 Product #26920 (In Stock)

Another solid, satisfying, bottle of California Cabernet that would cost $10 more if it was from Napa! Rich, ripe, and packed with sweet blackberry, blueberry, and currant fruit accented by a dusty cocoa powder note. Perfectly balanced between richness, acid, and fine, dusty, tannin, this is ready to enjoy now with a steak or even just on its own.
- Louis Martini Cabernet Sauvignon Alexander Valley 2010 Product #27167 (In Stock)

This robust, ripe, California Cabernet is even more impressive considering the challenging 2010 vintage, one of the coolest and longest ever. Winemaker Michael Martini took the best Cabernet Sauvingon from thee different Alexander Valley Vineyards and then blended in 10% Petit Sirah to add more color and ripe black fruit. Aging for 14 months in a mixture of new and used oaks let the wine come together and added a dash of chocolate and spice, but avoided any overt oaky flavors – important for a winery whose founder hated the taste of wood! Dark and robust now, but soft enough on the long finish to enjoy with grilled meats or a 30 minute decant. Excellent value.
“Martini’s 2010 Cabernet Sauvignon is very tight today, but it nevertheless dazzles with expressive dark red fruit, grilled herbs, licorice and dried flowers. An exotic, utterly beguiling Cabernet, the 2010 is long on personality and character. Tar, licorice and iron are some of the dark, brooding notes that add muscle and an element of darkness that is undeniably appealing. Readers will need to give the 2010 at least a few years in bottle. The future sure looks bright here. Best of all, within the context of California Cabernet Sauvignon, the 2010 is a steal. Anticipated maturity: 2015-2025.”Wine Advocate 91+ points
- Sineann Cabernet Columbia Valley 2010 Product #26894 (In Stock)

Wineries like Sineann are the reason that Washington State has been giving the Napa Valley a run for its money when it comes to 'steak night' Bordeaux varietals at a reasonable price. Looks like the Spectator agrees!
"Focused blackberry and floral flavors mark this fresh, vibrant red, picking up something like Worcestershire sauce on the expressive finish. Try with a steak. Drink now through 2015. 250 cases made"Wine Spectator 90 points
- Paul Hobbs Crossbarn Cabernet Sauvignon Napa 2010 Product #26552 (In Stock)
-
-
Another fine vintage for Paul Hobb's "entry-level" Napa Cab. As WA said about the nearly identical 2008: "A terrific bargain in Napa Cabernet...a brilliant perfume of smoked herbs, sweet creme de cassis and blackberry fruit, incense and hints of charcoal and herbs. Savory, broad and expansive on the palate, this full-bodied, supple-textured effort is a classic Napa Valley Cabernet that is silky enough to be drunk early in life and over the next 10-15 years."
- Ch Montelena Cabernet Napa 2010 Product #26918 (In Stock)

As Wine Advocate says, ""It’s great to see this historic property making wines that live up to its reputation." Wait if you can...or just decant it a while now.
"Chateau Montelena’s 2010 Cabernets are among the highlights in this set of new releases, although the 2011 Chardonnay is pretty terrific as well. Bo Barrett credits his experiences in 1987 and 1988 as a big reason he was able to handle the stresses of the 2010 vintage, in particular the late season heat spikes that gave growers fits. A big, mouth filling wine, the 2010 Cabernet Sauvignon, shows the personality of the vintage in its intense fruit. There is plenty of underlying structure in this deep, resonant Cabernet Sauvignon. Mint, flowers and sweet red berries are some of the nuances that are woven into the finish. This is far from an easygoing Napa Cabernet. Although delicious today, it should drink well for a number of years. Another year or so in bottle should help the elements come together even more fully. The 2010 is 93% Cabernet Sauvignon and 7% Merlot. Anticipated maturity: 2014-2024."Wine Advocate 92 points

Powerful, rich, and very limited!
"The Sineann 2010 Block One represents [Peter] Rosback’s under-300 case production from the eponymous parcel of Cabernet Sauvignon on Champoux Vineyard. Tobacco, resinous herbs and nut oils mingle with blackberry and cassis on an alluring nose and sweetly rich, expansive, finely tannic palate. This finishes with sappy persistence and ought to be worth following for the better part of a decade."Wine Advocate 91 points
- Caymus Cabernet Sauvignon 2010 Product #26232 (In Stock)

-
An American classic that always drinks well young, middle-aged, and old.
"Ripe cherries crushed in a snifter, a subtle smell of ripeness. And a bit of grape pumice at fermentation, rustic. Other nuances come to mind- smoke in a forest cabin, earth, spice and cola. The flavors in this wine are genuinely good, but the textural elements are its most exceptional feature. The entry wanders, deliberating, then evolves and expands to cocoa- like fine tannins in harmony with oak, fruit and acidity. A balanced and harmonious wine with a long evolution." (Winery Notes)
