From the old Moffet Ranch Vineyard (now called MBar) on the west side of Oakville, the 2021 Cabernet Sauvignon MBar Ranch Vineyard offers classic Cabernet notes of ripe blue fruits as well as lots of floral and herbal background nuances. I love the palate, and it's medium to full-bodied, with the vintage's concentrated, structured mouthfeel, silky tannins, and a great finish. As with many 2021s, it's tight and reserved, and will need bottle age. | 95-97 points, Jeb Dunnuck for jebdunnuck.comWinemaker Thomas Rivers Brown has a history of high praise and huge scores with Napa Cabernet Sauvignon he has crafted for prestigious labels such as Schrader, Revana, Pulido-Walker, Maybach...and a stable of others. The wines for his own label Rivers-Marie are no exception. He selects fruit from the vineyard sites he sources with such a studious calculation that his winemaking efforts are focused on framing the raw material to simply show it in context. | Falling Bright
