Rich vibrant purple and red hues present in this wine. Cassis, black cherry and ripe black plumb combine with black pepper, and mocha with a hint of black olive. Flavors of juicy blackberry and cassis are encompassed with black licorice and a slightly toasted oak. This is a structured Cabernet with length, flavor and style.
Critic Ratings
Tasting Panel Review - Rated 95:
Ripe and ready aromas of black cherry and walnut. Lush and broad with spiced boysenberry, deep and dense. Elegant and seamless, and one of the better ’22 Cabs from a hot vintage. White pepper adds seasoning to the palate and refreshes the red and blue fruit on the finish.
James Suckling Review - Rated 92:
A juicy, generous, fluid quality makes this full-bodied wine accessible and easy to sip. Attractive raspberry and red cherry aromas are followed by blackberry, sage and black olive nuances on the palate. Gentle tannins. Drink now or hold.
Wine Enthusiast Review - Rated 92:
Fleshy aromatics of spiced, dark fruits reveal concentration and intensity on the palate. Flavors of fig, plum, cocoa and espresso bring textural richness together with melting tannins into a lengthy finish.
