James Suckling, 91 Points 

"Full-bodied and compact, this has aromas and flavors of chocolate, cedar, baked plums and sweet spices. It’s plush and ripe, although the tannins are firm and dusty at the moment. 55% cabernet sauvignon, 20% merlot, 17% syrah, 7% malbec and 1% cabernet franc. Try from 2027." 

Vinous, 91 Points 

"The 2022 Red Wine Red Mountain opens with a rich blend of crushed raspberries, autumnal spice and blood orange. It sweeps across the palate with ease, silky and polished in feel with red and blue fruits that slowly saturate. The 2022 takes a turn toward structure on the finish, tapering off with staining length and edgy tannins that frame the experience without slowing its momentum." 

Winemaker Notes: 

"Aromas of dried cranberry, plum and fresh raspberry intertwined with spice. Ripe blue and dark fruits, nuances of herbs, cocoa spice and toasty oak. Debonair and supple in texture with polished tannins. Smart in structure." 

Alcohol: 14.5%
