2013 Cabernet Sauvignon Wine

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...

jamessuckling.com, 96 points: Aromas of black licorice, black berry and rust. Hot stone. Full body, layered and juicy with loads of fresh fruit and chewy tannins. Sexy, muscular cabernet with tone and focus. Screw cap. Hard not to drink now. Better in...

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...

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.

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

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...

jamessuckling.com, 94 points: Intriguing aromas of walnut, shiitake mushroom and dark fruits follow through to a full body, round and velvety tannins and a bright finish. A vivid and silky mouthfeel. Long finish. Drink or hold.

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, 90 points: The 2013 Cabernet Sauvignon Oakville, which spent more time in French oak, and is more expensive, has an inkier ruby/purple color, slightly more fruitcake, spice box, juicy blackcurrant fruit, a medium to full body...

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, 100 points: Little can be added to the greatness of the 2013 Cabernet Sauvignon Grand Vin, a blend of 87% Cabernet Sauvignon, 12% Merlot and 1% Petit Verdot. The wine (600 cases) is truly stunning in its dense, crème de cassis and...

Wine Enthusiast, 93 points: A new offering from the Sonoma-based producer meant to recall the estate's original founding in the Napa Valley, this wine sources from across that appellation and impresses right away in its succulent and soft approach...

Wine Spectator, 95 points: Remarkably elegant and refined for a wine of this size and depth, with tiers of plum, blackberry and currant, as well as subtle touches of black licorice that remain pure and graceful on the long, lingering aftertaste...

Wine Spectator, 90 points: Exhibits a green herb and cedar edge, with firm, tart berry, spice and floral scents. This style will best be served by short-term cellaring. Ends clean and juicy, showing a dash of anise. Best from 2020 through 2032...

Vinous, 90 points: Good dark red, not quite as bright at the rim as the Malbec. Classic Cabernet aromas of cassis, plum and tobacco leaf, with a touch of reduction. Plush, round and sweet, offering a wonderfully pliant texture and...

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...
