Is Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon a good wine?
What reviewers say
“Moderate funk upon opening, quickly dissipates. Musty nose of mushrooms and dark fruit. After 5 minutes of decanting, great fruit flavors, grippy tannins, nice acidity, and if this vineyard were located there….Rutherford dust.”
From a top-rated Vivino review for this bottle.
