About this wine
94 POINT phenom – from a tried and true Cabernet favorite – at the sort of WAY under $20 price you just can’t ignore! What a week! Super Bowl, my best gal’s Birthday, EPIC Olympics, Six Nations Rugby, Valentine’s Day (meh), President’s Day holiday…then leading right into Fat Tuesday’s Mardi Gras kick-off…I mean, C’MON!!! All that calls for a celebration, my people – and this FIFTEEN DOLLAR, 94 point, California Cab, at a melon-thumping 75% OFF?!?! Cherry…meet top. YES!!!! DOLUM is BACK!!!! These fine folks are perhaps the single greatest new CABERNET producer we’ve found in the last couple of years, dropping hit after hit like Bad Bunny and those weird sugar cane people at the Super Bowl halftime show. Y’all rightly leaped feet first into the deep end when we first dropped this a few months back…and now? Guess who just re-stocked on another TRUCKLOAD??? We did!!! The already iconic, simply PHENOMENAL 2023 vintage is here – and the time is NOW to reload on this all-time Cali-Cab deal! Wine wunderkind and mountain specialist Chad Alexander has done it again – inky, hedonistic, rich, and all-out LUSCIOUS Cali-Cab that will no doubt go down in the annals of Last Bottle history as one of the greatest deals of ALL TIME! Fifteen bucks? You can get a watered-down Coors Light at the ballpark for that much! The heady cassis and blackberry perfume! The plush bramble fruits, and plums, with the wild sage and fennel spice, and flecks of crushed gravel and vibrant minerality throughout?! STOP IT! It’s silky smooth, and all kinds of dreamy, with a finish that lingers softly, and leaves you craving just…one…more…SIP! Criminally easy to drink – our little sample bottle was gone in three minutes flat on the tasting bar in the office – and colleagues were pouring this into coffee mugs rather than seek out a wine glass and risking missing out. This drinks like a Napa Cab in that $75+ range…easily – but at THIS price? And a full 75% OFF? That’s a 6-pack of scrumdiddly-umptuous Cali-Cab – signed, sealed, and delivered to your front porch for under $100! DO NOT miss out on this simply KILLER deal! While it lasts!
