Cade (Plumpjack) Cabernet Sauvignon Howell Mountain Estate 2014 375ml

94 points James Suckling: "Aromas of stones, dark tea and blackberries. Full to medium body, polished tannins and a juicy finish. Very pretty and flavorful. Drink in 2020. (5/5/17)"

93 points Robert Parker: "The 2014 Cabernet Sauvignon Estate from their Howell Mountain vineyards is a blend of 92% Cabernet Sauvignon and the rest Merlot and Petit Verdot. A beauty, with mulberry, blackcurrant and blackberry fruit, graphite and spice, the wine cuts a broad swath across the palate with no hard edges. The color is a healthy, deep purple and the wine full-bodied, rich, and while drinkable now, is capable of evolving for up to 15-20 years. Drink: 2016-2036. (Dec 2016)"

93 points William Kelley (Decanter): "Generous, supple and expressive, Cade's 2014 is abundantly endowed with aromas and flavours of creamy cherry, dark spice and nicely integrated new oak. Expansive and open-knit on the palate, the wine is framed by fine tannins and underpinned by good acidity, avoiding excess in its unabashedly extrovert style. Drinking window 2018-2028 (May 2017)"

92 points Wine Spectator: "A treat, showing deft balance and offering a charming mix of spicy, toasty oak amid a core of red and dark berry, with touches of anise and herb. Slowly and gracefully gains momentum and depth. Best from 2018 through 2028. (9/30/17)"

92 points Antonio Galloni (Vinous): "Cade's 2014 Cabernet Sauvignon Estate is soft, supple an open-knit, especially for a Howell Mountain wine. Black cherry, dark chocolate, spice, menthol and licorice are all pushed forward. The 2014 will drink well with minimal cellaring given its supple, silky personality. (Dec 2016)"
