Dyer Cabernet Sauvignon Diamond Mountain 2004 (PoppingCorks.com)

Fri, 29 Aug 2008 16:34:35 GMT

Megclemans posted a review: A new and little winery from the Diamond Mt. region. The Dyers' are both winemakers, Bill for Sterling Daimond Mt Cab, Dawnee for Chandon. Both with over 20 years of experience. This is what a Cabernet Sauvignon should be. Full robust dark cherry, leather, dusty finish and understated oak. There is none of the California overripe and jammy fruit that so many have...

Cabernet Couch, Furniture for Winos (The UberReview)

Fri, 29 Aug 2008 03:11:47 GMT

Making or sitting on furniture made from wine bottles is just not something I would ever have the desire to do. As you can see, the results don’t look very good, but if you drink an enormous amount of cheap wine then you might as well download the specs and go through with the Cabernet [...]

The Staglins took this vineyard and the adjoining ranch and literally...

Casillero Del Diablo Cabernet Sauvignon-Syrah Pirvate Reserve 2005 wine review by (PB) (The Wine Cask Blog)

noreply@blogger.com (PB) — Tue, 26 Aug 2008 01:57:00 GMT

Black cherry hue with big nose of inky ripe black cherry fruit and plum with dark chocolate. Palate has nice flavors of black berry and baker's chocolate. Was better two days after I opened it and paired well with rib eye steak on the grill. I paid about $8 for this wine on sale and it was a decent value so raise a glass. --A Review from The Wine Cask Blog. Creative Commons: Attribution - ShareAlike...

Rodney Strong, Rockaway Cabernet Sauvignon 2005 (PoppingCorks.com)

Sat, 23 Aug 2008 22:56:02 GMT

My wine education started with Cabernet Sauvignon in the early 1980’s. After a brief time with Bordeaux blends, I discovered California Cabernet and used to almost exclusively drink this variety daily. I soon discovered the magic of single vineyard Cabs and the majority of my most memorable wines are from these vineyards. Places like To [...]

Kenwood Jack London 2004 Cabernet Sauvignon, $24 per bottle by the half case at Vons and other fine supermarkets. It's made from grapes grown on the grounds of Jack London's Wolf House in the hills of Sonoma County, and it's a consistent winner in blind tastings. Try the $18 zinfandel too.
