Critical Acclaim

96 Points from Robert Parker

95 Points from Wine Enthusiast

The 2012 Robert Keenan Winery Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon earned widespread critical praise, highlighted by a 96-point score from Robert Parker’s Wine Advocate and 95 points from Wine Enthusiast. In his review, Robert Parker described the 700-case release as a "blockbuster wine," praising its combination of power, richness, and Graves-like Bordeaux character while projecting an impressive 25-to-30-year cellaring lifespan. Similarly, Wine Enthusiast commended the wine's extracted core, noting how its bittersweet dark chocolate, cedar, and currant profile delivers a boldly structured yet lush mouthfeel.

Tasting Notes

The 2012 Robert Keenan Winery Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon is a bold, structured red wine from the Spring Mountain District in Napa Valley, composed of 93% Cabernet Sauvignon and 7% estate Cabernet Franc. Showing an opaque, inky purple color, it opens with powerful aromatics of crème de cassis, blackberry, black cherry, violets, and cedar. On the palate, this full-bodied wine delivers concentrated layers of crushed dark fruit, bittersweet chocolate, graphite, tobacco, and a subtle hint of charcoal smoke, anchored by sturdy, polished tannins and a long, lush finish. Given its rich structure and mountain acidity, it pairs effortlessly with hearty dishes such as grilled ribeye steak, roasted rack of lamb, braised short ribs, venison, and aged hard cheeses.
