Jeb Dunnuck, 98 Points 

"Coming from the talents of Aaron Pott, the Seven Stones 2018 Cabernet Sauvignon (90% Cabernet Sauvignon and 10% Cabernet Franc) offers a full-bodied, concentrated, yet light on its feet style with a great perfume of darker berry and currant fruit as well as ample violets, flowers, and a sense of gravelly earth-like minerality. From vines near Meadowood and aged 22 months in new French oak, this rich, layered, age-worthy wine has nicely integrated oak, moderate acidity, and outstanding length. It should keep for 20+ years." 

Wine Advocate, 97 Points 

"The Seven Stones 2018 Cabernet Sauvignon is composed of 90% Cabernet Sauvignon and 10% Cabernet Franc. Deep garnet-purple colored, it offers up baked plums, warm cassis and blackberry pie with hints of dried herbs, tar and underbrush plus a waft of cloves. Medium to full-bodied with firm, grainy tannins, this is seamless, with a good core of earthy fruit and a long and savory finish. 435 cases were made." 

Winemaker Notes: 

"On the nose you pick up hints of raspberry, cola, red currants, clove, cinnamon, blackberry, tart cherry, blueberry, anise, cedar, pomegranate, wet rock and black truffle. The initial attack on the palate is rich and layered with black licorice and blackberry pie. The wine lingers on the mid-palate with great weight, body and balance and a soft textured, fine grain tannin structure underlying the flavors of roast beef, cherry, plum, espresso and roast duck. The finish has great length showing the silky textured tannin and the flavors of cherry jam, tobacco, tar and blackberry pie. Presenting good acidity and freshness, this is one of the brightest and freshest wines from this property and has years of life in front of it."
