Today, we have another heavy hitter from a guy who makes some of the best-selling domestic wines in our store. But this wine is a little different, as it's a wine that has never been in our store before, and it just received a whopping 96 points!
McPrice Myers has access to truly exceptional vineyards that are producing some of the best Cabernet Sauvignon grapes in the state, so it just made sense to add Cab to the Beautiful Earth series of wines. By placing long term agreements with the vineyard owners, he's able to secure the best plots. That, along with his skills and phenomenal blending palate, is how he is able to produce high-scoring wines that sell for less than other wines of similar scores.
There is no expense spared on this wine, and even though it saw 60% new French oak (something typically reserved for $100 and up Cabs), this gem sells closer to the $50 price-point! On top of that, respected critic Erin Brooks has rated this at 96 points, and noted the wine has "fireworks" and "a long, layered finish." This is an exciting wine to grab today...while it's still around!
ROBERT PARKER'S WINE ADVOCATE 96 POINTS - "The 2021 Beautiful Earth Cabernet Sauvignon is scented of maraschino cherries, allspice, rose petals, bay leaves and pencil shavings, gaining in aromatic intensity as it unwinds in the glass. The full-bodied palate has a deep core of fruit yet is light on its feet, with fireworks of fresh acidity and abundant, finely grained tannins, and it has a long, layered finish. It will gain savory complexity in bottle over the next 15+ years."
