98 points Antonio Galloni (Vinous): "The 2019 Cabernet Sauvignon Montecillo Vineyard is a headspinning wine. Rich, dense and explosive, the 2019 captures all the pedigree of this great site. Readers will find a towering, statuesque Cabernet of the highest level. Graphite, leather, dried herbs, menthol and licorice play off a core of intense, dark fruit. Potent, muscular tannins need time to soften, but, wow, what a wine. Best of all, the Montecillo is one of the most insane values readers will find in elite California Cabernet Sauvignon. I would be thrilled to own it. Drink 2029-2044 (Jan 2022)"
96 points Clive Pursehouse (Decanter): "The use of 30% whole cluster in this mountain Cabernet from the old vine block planted in 1967 on its own roots at around 1700 feet in elevation. It was aged 23 months in 30% new oak. Fresh aromatics of bergamot, bay laurel, sea salt and blood orange. The herbal core of eucalyptus, briary blackberries and a mint-tinged saline finish. A gossamered palate with a beautiful minerality that frames tart blackberries and wild mountain herbs. Drink 2024-2038 (Dec 2024)"
