Bold nose of cloves, blackcurrants, ripe cherries, vanilla, tobacco and lemon leaves. Firm, full-bodied and well-framed, with polished tannins and pretty sweet spice. Tangy fruit on a creamy and vibrant finish. Drink or hold.” – James Suckling, June 2023

“Savory, dried red capsicum with cedar, cocoa powder and dried mushrooms on top of black cherries. Juicy and layered with some currants and savory earthy spices on the palate. Not quite deep, but a very elegant and savory expression of cabernet with a very long, subtle finish. A little sweet-sour, but quite refined and approachable, too. Drink now.” James Suckling, July 2022

“A savory and soulful wine with notes of mountain brush and ripe, red fruits threaded with a mild herbaceous quality. Plush, with a salty minerality, cinnamon-cedar and cigar box. The wine evolves as it opens, completing cycle after cycle of finesse.”
-The Tasting Panel & The Somm Journal, September 2021

92 POINTS
“Aromas of ripe blackberries, redcurrants, baking spice and leather. Medium-to full-bodied with well-integrated tannins. Rather restrained in style, very lean and clear. Pleasant ripe fruit on the palate with fresh acidity. Drink now.”

“A soft, velvety red in a reserved and polished style. It’s medium-to full-bodied with lovely flavors of berry, tobacco and some herb. Why wait? Very drinkable now.”

“Spiced red black fruits, dried flowers, new leather, and some spicy intense notes all emerge from the 2016 Cabernet Sauvignon Block 21, a medium-bodied, elegant, nicely balanced Sonoma County Cabernet. It reminds me of a solid Margaux and should keep for a decade.”
-Jeb Dunnuck, January 2021
