2013 Cabernet Sauvignon Wine

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, 95 points: Another majestic effort from Boisset is the 2013 Cabernet Sauvignon JCB No. 10. This is 90% Cabernet Sauvignon from Oakville and 10% Petit Verdot. The wine shows terrific floral notes intermixed with blackberry and...

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, 94 points: (92 - 94 points) The 2013 Cabernet Sauvignon is slightly denser and pure than the 2012 with blackberry and blackcurrant fruit, incense, charcoal and camphor notes. Full-bodied, voluptuous and rich with an intensity of...

Vinous, 94 points: (94+ points) The 2013 Cabernet Sauvignon from Casa Piena is just as impressive as it has always been. Rich, ample and powerful, the 2013 exudes class. Sweet tobacco, herbs, menthol and licorice wrap around a core of...

Vinous, 96 points: The 2013 Cabernet Sauvignon Mon Chevalier is one of the best wines of the year at Morlet. Ripe, exuberant and richly layered in the glass, the 2013 possesses nearly extravagant richness. This is an especially opulent...

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, 95 points: The 2013 Cabernet Sauvignon JCB No 1 is absolutely magnificent – a 100% Cabernet Sauvignon from clone 4 aged 19 months in 50% new French oak. Unfortunately, only 130 cases were made, but it’s a stunner from Boisset...

jamessuckling.com, 96 points: Intense aromas of blackberry, tar and wet earth follow through to a full body, chewy tannins and a long, flavorful finish. Bark and cigar box undertones. A solid and powerful red yet balanced and poised. Give it two or...

jamessuckling.com, 95 points: Very pure, focused cabernet with bright cassis and purple-cherry aromas. Gentle mint and herbal notes, too. The palate has an elegant edge of bright, lithe and juicy cassis as well as cherries. Slick, balanced, supreme...

jebdunnuck.com, 94 points: I found some variance in the 2013 Cabernet Sauvignon Oakville with one bottle being more medium-bodied and midweight, and a second bottle (which was used for the review here) showing much more depth and richness...

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, 96 points: The 2013 Nicolás Catena Zapata is a blend of 75% Cabernet Sauvignon and 25% Malbec from the La Pirámide, Adrianna and Nicasia vineyards. It is perfectly clean and focused, a noticeable improvement over the 2012 vintage...

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, 92 points: There are three vineyard sites, and the wine they cull out of those vineyards is the least expensive blend, Onda. The 2013 Cabernet Sauvignon Onda, which is 93% Cabernet Sauvignon and 7% Petit Verdot, sees less new oak...

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, 96 points: The 2013 Cabernet Sauvignon Beckstoffer Las Piedras Single Vineyard is delicious wine with beautiful cedar wood, crème de cassis, blackberry, licorice, and a touch of camphor and incense. The wine is full-bodied, powerful...

Wine Enthusiast, 92 points: Another of the producer's 100% varietal wines, this comes from two head-turning sites: Broken Rock Ranch at the foot of Atlas Peak, and Beckstoffer Las Piedras. The two marry well, offering sizable tannin and power atop...
