Our take
What we make of this bottle
This is Cabernet Sauvignon from Paso Robles, in the standard 750 ml bottle. What the name does not tell you is how far the price can move: across the ten stores we checked in September 2026, its price ranged from $23.99 to $43.99.
Bootleg's own site places the wine company in Santa Rosa and this Cabernet's fruit in Paso Robles. Regional guides describe that appellation as a very large growing area on California's Central Coast, divided into eleven named districts, where warm, dry days turn to much cooler nights as marine air pushes inland through gaps in the coastal mountains. Grape guides call Cabernet Sauvignon a red grown in many regions that often makes firmly built wines; regional authorities point to black currant, cherry and plum as common fruit references, with noticeable tannin and possible spice from oak. We do not have a shopper rating for this wine.
Across the 483 wines we do have shopper ratings for, the middle score is 4.71.

Getting to know Paso Robles.
Paso Robles is a very large appellation, not one uniform valley. Coastal openings, mountains, river plains and elevation create different growing conditions across its districts.
What the name means
Paso Robles is a federally recognized American Viticultural Area in San Luis Obispo County on California's Central Coast. Eleven named districts divide the larger AVA.
How grapes grow here
Warm, dry summer days are followed by much cooler nights. The Templeton Gap and other openings in the Santa Lucia Range pull marine air inland, with the strength of that cooling changing from west to east.
What lies under the vines
More than 30 soil series occur in the AVA. Calcareous shale and other marine sedimentary rocks are important, alongside granite-derived, volcanic, sandy, loamy and clay-rich ground.
How large the region is
- AVA area
- The appellation covers about 612,000 acres.
- Vineyard area
- More than 40,000 acres are planted to wine grapes.
Places within the region
- Western districts
- Adelaida, Willow Creek and Templeton Gap include hill and mountain sites with stronger coastal influence.
- Eastern districts
- Estrella, Geneseo and San Juan Creek include broader plains and hills farther from the Pacific.
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.
