The epitome of Paso Robles Cabernet Sauvignon: San Simeon. On the nose, you encounter the unmistakable notes of San Simeon's unique selection of French and American oak barrels with aromas of baking spices and vanilla intermingling with notes of ripe dark fruits. On the palate, you will be greeted with notes of blackberry and ripe plum, followed by touches of cocoa and warm spices, and a long finish underpinned by fine-grained tannins and solid acidity.

Wine Enthusiast Review - Published 7/1/2022 - Rated 92:
This is an easy-to-find wine that overdelivers. Aromas of dark cherry, toasted wood, cocoa and graphite make for a complex nose. A chalky structure frames baked strawberry and hard spices on the palate, making for a sip that's lush while still fun.
Wine Spectator Review - Issue Aug. 31, 2022 - Rated 90:
Shows steeped plum, boysenberry and blackberry fruit flavors that roll through, coated with melted licorice and backed by a chocolaty note on the finish. This has just enough energy to support the frankly overt fruit. For fans of the style. Drink now through 2025. 10,000 cases made.
