95 points Jeb Dunnuck: "Despite the name, the 2021 AE Red Wine is 100% Cabernet Sauvignon, but I suspect this will move toward a red blend in the near future. The 2021 is terrific, with lots of attractive red and black fruits that turn more mineral-laced with time in the glass. Medium to full-bodied and concentrated, with building tannins, it's another beautiful wine from this team where the cellar will be your friend. Hide bottles for 4-5 years, and I'd be shocked if it didn't evolve gracefully over the following two decades or more. Drink: 2028-2048. (2/20/24)"
93 points Lisa Perrotti-Brown (The Wine Independent): "The 2021 Cabernet Sauvignon AE, with 5% each of Merlot, Cabernet Franc, and Malbec in the blend, is deep garnet-purple in color. It bursts with vibrant scents of blueberries, stewed black plums, and blackcurrant pastilles opening out to notes of mint tea and garrigue. The full-bodied palate is plush, juicy, and ready to go, delivering bags of black fruit and savory flavors and a long, lifted finish. Alcohol 14.8%. Drink: 2024-2042. (12/6/23)"
91 points Wine Enthusiast: "This vividly fruity wine opens with red and black cherries, bay leaf and rhubarb, while the flavors are equally fruity and vibrant. The wine is lightly tannic, well balanced and ready to drink, although it should age nicely through at least 2028. Alcohol 14.8%. (Apr 2023)"
91 points James Suckling: "Ripe fruit on the nose with mulberries, blackcurrants, cooked cherries and sweet spices. Some mint and bark. Chewy and ripe, with a full body and a plush core of dark berry fruit. Leafy, tarry elements come through. Try from 2024. (7/3/23)"
