2013 Wine from USA

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, 93 points: Medium to deep garnet colored, the 2013 Cabernet Sauvignon Louer Family rolls out of the glass with seductive notions of baked plums, warm cassis and blueberry compote with touches of chocolate mint, unsmoked cigars, new...

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, 95 points: This is an impressive wine from an estate that I haven't tasted in the past. The 2013 Cabernet Sauvignon Single Barrel Select emerges from the George III Vineyard in Rutherford and is aged in 100% new French oak. It...

Vinous, 91 points: The 2013 Pinot Noir (Russian River Valley) is a wonderful introduction to the vintage. Plump, juicy and forward, but with good underlying energy, the 2013 is impeccably balanced from start to finish. Dark red cherry...

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, 93 points: A classic Washington State Cabernet, the 2013 Estate Cabernet Sauvignon is a medium to full-bodied, elegant and vibrant effort that offers lots of violets, cassis, and spring flower-like aromas and flavors. It shows more...

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, 94 points: The flagship is the 2013 Estate Red Wine, which is a blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Petit Verdot that spent 20 months in 62% new French oak, with the balance in second fill barrels. Coming from a cooler, higher...

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, 95 points: Fleshing out beautifully since I tasted it from barrel last year, the 2013 Pinot Noir Mt Carmel Vineyard 3 5 offers lots of minerality and saltiness to go with darker-based fruits, crushed violets and cassis. Slightly...

jamessuckling.com, 94 points: This is a solid cab with a backbone of ripe and chewy tannins and lots of wet earth, black currant and autumnal leaf character. Full and powerful. This needs a few years to soften. Better in 2019.

Vinous, 94 points: (AG92-94 points) Orange peel, smoke, spices, mint and apricot pit flesh out in the 2013 Chardonnay Camp Meeting Ridge Vineyard. Bold and textured in its flavors but classically mid-weight in style, the 2013 captures a...

Wine Spectator, 94 points: Elegantly styled, rich and creamy, with a pure mix of dark berry, licorice, cedary oak, mocha and dried herb. A mix of grace, finesse and density, ending with a dash of espresso. Drink now through 2025. 1,500 cases made. –JL

Vinous, 92 points: The 2013 Pinot Noir Aidan Wildrose Vineyard is another plump, juicy wine that will drink well with minimal cellaring, although it clearly has the potential to improve in bottle. Dark red and blue-fleshed fruits, smoke...

Wine Spectator, 92 points: A real find, rich, juicy and deeply fruited, with blackberry, wild berry and black currant flavors. This is both powerful and graceful, revealing black licorice and dusty herb accents as this builds to a long, sleek...

Vinous, 93 points: The 2013 Chardonnay offers a super-intriguing interplay of the vivid, crystalline purity that is such a signature of the appellation, along with soft contours that give the wine much of its welcoming personality. Scents...

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, 94 points: A distinctive and singular style of wine, the 2013 Cabernet Sauvignon Three D Dr. Crane is a relatively small cuvée of only 345 cases. Dense purple in color, with notes of charcoal, truffle, graphite, blackberry and...

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, 94 points: Middle-of-the-road style-wise, with a rocking mix of fruit, texture and freshness, the 2013 Chardonnay 3 D offers up lots saltiness in its citrus, ripe apple and crushed rock-riven bouquet. Medium-bodied, layered and...

Vinous, 95 points: The 2013 Red Blend Mernet Reserve, Keenan's Merlot/Cabernet Sauvignon blend is striking. Like so many wines in this vintage, however, it probably won't be ready to drink for a number of years. Still, there is an...
