James Suckling, 96 Points
"Lots of blackcurrant and crushed stone on the nose, as well as some dustiness. Full-bodied, very velvety and restrained. Beautiful energy at the end. This comes mostly from Coombsville, Rutherford and Oakville vineyards. Two or three years will bring this into the right space, but already so enjoyable to taste."
Decanter, 95 Points
"A real pleasure cruise! Alluring red berry fruit dusted with crushed minerals, coffee beans and dried herbs. Exceedingly plush palate with silken layers of blackberry, mulberry and liquorice that cascades towards milk chocolate, thyme and sweet oak spice. Fine tannins and a thread of juicy acidity beckon another sip."

"Starting with the 2019 Cabernet Sauvignon, this deep purple-hued effort offers tons of cassis, blueberry, and black cherry-like fruit as well as chocolate and leafy herb notes. It's ripe and balanced, with good tannins and a great finish. Drink this outstanding Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon over the coming 10-12 years."
Winemaker Notes:
"This delicious Cabernet Sauvignon is full of perfumed, ripe, dark berry fruit with layers of macerated blackberry, black cherry, dark plum, and black currant. Notes of Madagascar vanilla, cardamom, and allspice pay tribute to the well-integrated, subtle oak. Plush and rich with velvety, mouth-coating tannins, the finish is long and multi-layered, showcasing the exquisite balance and complexity of this intriguing Cabernet. Beautiful upon release and able to cellar for many years to come."
