The 2018 Cabernet Sauvignon (Napa Valley) is not just gorgeous, it is also one of the best values readers will come across. Ripe, juicy and expressive, the 2018 once again hits all the right notes. Inky dark fruit, smoke, licorice, spice and sweet floral accents all race out of the glass. Readers will have a very hard time finding a better wine for the money. The balance of various appellations works so well here. The Caterwaul Napa Valley bottling might just be the finest wine in the market in its price range. (Antonio Galloni, Vinous, January 2021)

Love this one every time. IMO one of the best QPR’s at this price point. My last of the 2018s. I hope 2019s are as good.

A surprisingly soft Cabernet that is arguably one of the best wines for the cost that I’ve tasted. Perfectly balanced with a mélange of pleasant notes - anise, black fruit, and gravel. Very enjoyable now, but worthy of cellaring if you have the restraint to wait!!

Really nice to find such a great wine at an excellent value. This is one to enjoy sooner rather than later. Drinks like a higher priced Napa Cab. Expressive nose. Dark fruit. Baking spices. Full bodied. Somewhat grippy tannins. So glad that I picked up a few of these after reading about it. (QPR at $49)

For a $50 Napa Cabernet with free shipping, this is a slam dunk. Delicious already, but should be even better down the road.

I was very excited to try this and even used @Paul T- Huntington Beach to justify not letting it rest after shipping. I think this is going to be really good. It needs a bit of time. For TRB Cabernet, this is a steal!

TRB wine... Still very young and certainly needs more time and air... I coravin’d a glass just to try it.. still hot and slightly muted but opened up with time! Baked blueberry pie aromas and flavors .. this had good potential!!
