"Aromas of blackberries, blackcurrants and flowers. Hints of dark chocolate. Full body, firm and velvety tannins and a gorgeous berry-like, subtle, fruity finish. Tangy and citrusy acidity. Forest floor. One of the best Kronos ever. Old-vine glory." 

John Gilman, 96 Points 

"Cathy Corison’s 2014 Cabernet Sauvignon “Kronos Vineyard” bottling is breathtakingly beautiful out of the blocks. The wine comes in at a cool (particularly for the Rutherford Bench!) 13.5 percent octane and offers up a classically stellar bouquet of red and black cherries, Cuban cigar, a touch of pomegranate, a very complex base of Rutherford Bench soil tones, allspice and cedary oak. On the palate the wine is very pure, full, suave and seamless on the attack, with a superb core of fruit, lovely backend mineral drive, ripe, buried tannins and a long, nascently complex and vibrant finish. This is a brilliant and utterly refined wine in the making!" 

Vinous, 95 Points 

"The 2014 Cabernet Sauvignon Kronos is another rich, surprisingly powerful wine. The 2014 exudes notable concentration and depth, but the tannins are so integrated that the wine is almost shockingly approachable for such a young Kronos. Dark red stone fruit, smoke, licorice and tobacco add intrigue in this big, voluptuous wine, by Corison standards." 

Alcohol: 13.5%
