Wine Enthusiast
“This seamless, tempting wine combines a hearty 15% Petit Verdot with the Cab. Thick and dense, it imparts memorable flavors of Dr Pepper, black leather, cigar and plenty of berry, currant and plum. (VB)” (07/2018)

Wine Spectator
“Tense and vibrant, tightly coiled and laced with dusty, gravelly earth and cedary oak notes, this has a solid core of currant and blackberry flavors, imparting a presence of dusty earth and wood, with a dried herb edge. Drink now. (JL)” (11/2016)

James Suckling
“This has a pretty nose of blackberries, wild raspberries, sage, peppermint and mocha. Medium- to full-bodied with firm, fine tannins and bright acidity. Polished, fresh and vibrant.” (11/2021)
91
Decanter
“A pleasant nose of crushed rocks, salted toffee, frozen blueberries and evergreen. Texturally rich but retains a slender focus through the finish. The tannins are coarse at the moment, but given the complexity and balance of the nose, this should reward short to middle-term cellaring. (ML)” (10/2020)
91
Vinous
“The 2018 Cabernet Sauvignon, from vineyards in Oak Knoll, is dark, vibrant and bursting with energy. Black cherry, plum, chocolate, licorice, cloves and leather add to its brooding, virile feel. (AG)” (01/2021)
