Score 96/100 · Drink 2026-2043, Antonio Galloni, Vinous, Jan 2021

The 2018 Cabernet Sauvignon is outrageously beautiful. Rich, vivid and wonderfully deep, the 2018 hits so many high notes. Inky dark fruit, graphite, spice, leather, licorice and expressive earthy nuances are all laced together. In the glass, the 2018 is deep yet also light on its feet, with tremendous flavor intensity and superb balance. It is also one of the very best values in top-flight Napa Valley Cabernet. Don't miss it.

Score 95-97/100 · Antonio Galloni, Vinous, Jan 2020

The 2018 is shaping up to be one of the wines of this important Napa Valley harvest. Crushed rocks, crème de cassis, licorice, menthol, pine, lavender and licorice all pulse through this structured, potent Cabernet Sauvignon. Fresh, vibrant and light on its feet, the 2018 is positively stunning. I can't wait to taste it from bottle.
