Professional Ratings

    This bottling exhibits the richness that's made Paso Robles famous, yet at a price point that's great for frequent indulgence. Inky in the glass, the bottling's lush nose offers concentrated black cherry, caramel, cocoa and coffee. It's soft and smooth on the palate, where the black-cherry compote flavors are lifted by star anise and clove.

    Intensely dark crimson color with a nose of spice and herbs; rich, dense, and zesty with fne structure and notes of plum and blackberry.

    COMMENTARY: Vina Robles has been one of Paso Robles' steadiest producers of Cabernet Sauvignon. The winery turned in a solid performance with the 2016 vintages. TASTING NOTES: This wine is perfectly poised with ripe fruit, oak, and tannins. Its flavors make it perfect choice with grilled beef. (Tasted: February 11, 2019, San Francisco, CA)

As Paso Robles, California has soared in number of wineries and gained in popularity, Cabernet Sauvignon has firmly taken root as the region’s number one varietal. Alone, it accounts for just over 40% of plantings and is grown throughout both the western and eastern sides of the appellation. Though viticulture here dates back to the 18th century, Cabernet Sauvignon didn’t emerge as a significant grape here until the 1970’s. But since then it has definitely made up for lost time.

Legendary winemaker and consultant Andre Tchelistcheff first recognized Paso’s potential with Cabernet Sauvignon in the early 1960’s. The calcareous soil and dramatic diurnal temperature changes of Paso’s westside particularly intrigued him. Today modern winemaking techniques and focused experimentation with various clones, rootstocks and vineyard strategies optimize the region's ideal combination of soil and climate to deliver the best fruit possible.

The results are evident in the glass. Paso Robles Cabernet Sauvignon can be mesmerizing, with rich aromas and flavors of blackberry, cassis, black cherry, graphite, toasty oak, vanilla and spice. The structure, balance and unbridled opulence of these wines impress from first sip to last. Not surprisingly, Paso Robles Cabernet Sauvignons have steadily grown in reputation, not just in the U.S., but around the world.
