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

The 2018 Cabernet Sauvignon Atlas is a beautifully complete wine that marries fruit richness with savory intensity. Dark red cherry, iron, cedar, white pepper and leather give the 2018 a brilliant top register that carries through to the finish. Hints of cherry, blood orange, mocha and rose petal linger. The 2018 is exquisitely beautiful. That's all there is to it.

Score 93-95/100 · Antonio Galloni, Vinous, Jan 2020

The 2018 Cabernet Sauvignon Atlas offers a beguiling array of inky dark fruit and more savory and mineral notes. Deceptive in its mid-weight structure, the 2018 packs a serious punch in every direction. Crushed rocks, lavender, crème de cassis and sweet spice build into the finely cut, chiseled finish. This is such a promising wine.
