95 points James Suckling: "Cedary wood with cigars, sandalwood, cassis, blackberries, chili chocolate and a fine twist of balsamic note. Medium to full body with a smooth but tight frame, imbedded with creamy, melted tannins. Flavorful, polished and long. Drinkable now, but better after 2024. (4/29/22)"

94 points Joaquín Hidalgo (Vinous): "The 2018 Cabernet Sauvignon Le Dix also has an 8% dash of Syrah from Peralillo, Colchagua. Aged in 60% new barrels, it’s garnet in the glass with a purple sheen. The compellingly complex nose begins with subtle aromas of black currant and sour cherry followed by blueberries, bay leaf, spice and a coconutty backdrop from the aging process. In the mouth, this is full-bodied with rich, fruity flavor supported by the juice and a delicate freshness that stretches out the bold finish. Followers of this long-lasting wine will find that it’s grown rather juicier lately. Drink: 2022-2033. (Jun 2022)"
