Score 82/100 · Drink 2016-2019, Lisa Perrotti-Brown MW, Wine Advocate, Mar 2016

The 2012 Cabernet Sauvignon / Merlot Prelude Vineyards possesses a medium-deep garnet color with fragrant notes of blackberries and cherries plus vanilla, menthol, spice and cloves. The palate is firm and chewy, though a little hollow and clipped.

A classically styled wine that is tailored for instant appeal and drinkability. This is balanced and silky with beautiful fruit and harmony. Drink now. Screw cap.
