James Suckling
Reviewed November 2023 Aromas of blue plums, fruit cake and violets followed by box tree and crushed gravel with vanilla and dark chocolate. Full-bodied, soft acidity and finely grained tannins. Beautifully structured yet refined and harmonious. Drink or hold.

Wine Enthusiast
A good-old Napa Cab character comes through in this blackberry and black-olive scented wine that shows great balance despite elevated alcohol. A full body, medium tannins and lots of dark fruit with little noticeable oak keep it focused and delicious. (JG)

Wine Spectator
Ripe and focused, with good intensity to the boysenberry and blackberry coulis notes, which are carried by a graphite edge. Reveals violet accents through the lightly toasted finish, adding nice lift, with a curl of alder smoke at the end for more nuance. (JM)

Wine & Spirits
The Hendry Ranch includes parcels of cabernet sauvignon planted in 1974 at the base of Mount Veeder, having survived phylloxera due to their St-George rootstock. This wine blends that fruit with grapes from a neighboring block that they planted in 2006. Immediately luscious, the fruit comes up against hard, earthy tannins that curtail it for now, the wine feeling blunt with extract and needing to unwind. There’s pretty fruit behind all the tannins, waiting to fully emerge.
