96 points and 'Top 100 Wine of 2019 (#4),' Wine Spectator: "This delivers a very tightly focused, almost piercing beam of cassis, raspberry coulis and bitter cherry fruit, scored with singed alder and iron notes. Incense and tobacco details chime in on the finish. Long and refined, with the fruit leaving a sweet and mouthwatering echo. Best from 2022 through 2038. (8/31/19)"
94 points and 'Cellar Selection,' Wine Enthusiast: "[$150 list] With 9% Merlot in the blend, this wine was given 22 months in 100% new French oak and is built to last. Softly layered in cassis, it shows lifted acidity and graceful, firm tannins. Spicy nutmeg and clove season the fruit, adding length and complexity. Enjoyed 2026–2031. Alcohol 14.2%. (Sep 2020)"
Producer notes: "All of the Cabernet Sauvignon is from our 27.78 acre Reserve block from our Estate. Aromas of spiced cherries dominate the alluring nose, accompanied by cassis, dark plum, and a savory touch of anise. There is a clean elegant progression of lush plum, bright cherry and currant all riding on abundant but not overpowering tannin."
