More information on wine critics and ratings

With layered aromas of fresh red raspberry, blackberry pie and ripe cassis, this deep ruby wine captures the senses with fragrant dried violet, ginger snap, dark cocoa and sweet basil impressions. The palate opens with red cherry, juicy blueberry and red plum fruits that intermingle with hints of cinnamon stick and pie crust.

The complex array of flavours lasts through the lingering finish, framed by velvety tannins and echoes of cherry cordial and roasted espresso bean.

Decanter (DCT) : 91 Points (2016)
Ripe, rich, velvety and supple with succulent cassis and blackberry aromas. Great concentration of cedar, smoke and vanilla with overall wonderful complexity and structure.

Jeb Dunnuck (JD) : 91 Points (2016)
The only 2016 presented, the 2016 Cabernet Sauvignon Napa Valley spent 16-18 months in American oak and reveals a saturated purple color as well as a ripe, sexy style in its blackberry, plums, vanilla bean, and spice-laced aromas and flavors. Loaded with fruit, it still stays balanced and pure, with silky tannins and a great finish. I don't think it's going to make old bones, but it's a beautiful, pleasure-bent beauty.

James Suckling (JS) : 92 Points (2015)
Blackcurrant and walnut aromas with hints of dried herbs. Medium to full body, round and juicy tannins and a flavorful finish. A little old school but I like it. Drink in 2020.

Robert Parker (RP) : 90 Points (2015)
The 2015 Cabernet Sauvignon is deep garnet-purple in color with baked berries, earth, dried herbs and leather scents. Full-bodied with a good concentration of fruit, the tannins are a bit firm but good black fruit comes through on the finish.

Wine Enthusiast (WE) : 90 Points (2015)
This is the winery’s most broadly available wine, capturing the diversity of the valley across its many appellations. Sanguine in exotic red fruit and a fleshy meaty current of stony mineral, it’s fleshy and full bodied, with a lushness that lingers.

Crisp, bright and lively, this wine is an aromatic white blend boasting a bouquet of orange blossom, honeysuckle, citrus, tropical fruit, and fresh cut green herbs. On the palate, there are ripe fruit flavours of lychee, white peach, grapefruit and nectarine flavours. It is medium-bodied, with a hint of minerality on the long, refreshing finish.
