Score 96/100 · Drink 2022-2040, Antonio Galloni, Vinous, Jan 2018

As it often is, the Cabernet Sauvignon John C. Sullenger is one of the most complete wines in this range. Nothing in particular stands out. Expressive aromatics, silky tannins and bright, red-toned fruit are all laced together in a sublime, nuanced Cabernet that hits all the right notes. It's all finesse here.

Score 94/100 · Drink 2017-2034, Lisa Perrotti-Brown MW, Wine Advocate, Oct 2017

The 2015 Cabernet Sauvignon John C. Sullenger Vineyard is a deep garnet-purple color with a crème de cassis, blackberry pie and eucalypt nose plus hints of Marmite toast, chargrill and lavender. Medium-bodied and elegant with fine-grained, approachable tannins, the fruit is open and ready for business. Yum!

Score 93/100 · James Suckling, Oct 2017

A subtle nose here of blueberries, spices, a hint of mocha and crème de cassis. Full-bodied with integrated, soft tannins, fresh acidity and a fruity finish. Drink in 2020.
