1924 Double Black Cabernet Sauvignon Red Wine, California

The words that tell you the most in this wine's name are Cabernet Sauvignon. It is a red grape grown across many wine regions, and regional authorities say it often makes firmly built wines and is a common part of red blends.

Those authorities point to blackcurrant, plum and cherry as common fruit references, alongside a firm, drying grip called tannin and possible spice from oak. They add that ripeness, climate and winemaking can move the wine anywhere from lean and herb-edged to broad and fruit-led. The 8 ratings on the store page average 5 out of five, above the 4.71 median of the rated reds we track.

Price is the easiest thing to pin down: in our September 2026 checks it was priced from $11.49 to $19.99 across three stores. The grape name points more to structure, a red the authorities call firmly built, than to one exact flavor.

Our call: buy it as an inexpensive flier, priced toward the low end of the reds we track, if a confirmed grape, a California origin, and early scores above the middle of the rated reds we cover are enough to earn a spot in the cart. Pass if you want to know who makes a wine before you pour it; the story behind this label is still blank in our record, and the small pool of early scores is a start, not a reputation.
