Our take
What we make of this bottle
Ignore the bourbon barrels in the name for a moment and what is left is Cabernet Sauvignon, grown in California. Our grape research treats Cabernet as a red planted across many regions, usually firm in structure and often part of a blend. It ties the grape to currant, cherry and plum, to noticeable tannin, and to a little spice where oak is involved, while cautioning that ripeness, climate and winemaking can push any single bottle toward the lean or toward the ripe.
One fact about the maker is settled: Viña Concha y Toro USA counts Augment among its wine brands. Because we do not have a shopper rating for this wine, there is no crowd score to set beside that.
What does not come with it is any producer account of how this particular wine is made, which is the very part the bourbon-barrel name asks you to take on trust. If those barrels are the reason you reached for it, that is the claim to weigh.
Its regular price came to $15.88 in our August 2026 checks, the only price we have on record for it.

Research status
What we are still checking
Our overview above draws on the dated store feed, shopper ratings, our region and grape research, and any sourced producer facts. We are still working to confirm the current release, the full producer record, and the bottle itself, and we update this page as we learn more.
Getting to know California.
California on the label is useful provenance but weak detail about place. For these wines, sourcing disclosure, blend construction and house-style consistency carry more decision value than a generic climate paragraph.
What the name means
A state-level appellation, broader than an individual American Viticultural Area. It permits a multi-region blend and does not by itself identify one climate or soil.
How grapes grow here
The state spans cool maritime zones and hot inland valleys. A California designation alone does not reveal which conditions shaped the fruit.
What lies under the vines
At state scale, sourcing and house-style construction matter more than any single soil story.
How large the region is
- Reusable question
- Which counties or AVAs supplied the blend, and did that mix change by release?
Places within the region
- Resolution limit
- County, AVA and vineyard claims begin only when the release names them.
Getting to know Cabernet Sauvignon.
Cabernet Sauvignon is a red grape grown in many wine regions. It often makes firmly built wines and is also a common part of red blends.
Category guide
What to expect in the glass
Regional authorities describe black currant, cherry and plum as common fruit references, with noticeable tannin and possible spice from oak. Ripeness, climate and winemaking can move the wine from lean and herbal to broad and fruit-led.
