Score 88/100 · Drink 2017-2022, Antonio Galloni, Vinous, Mar 2018
Purlieu's 2015 Cabernet Sauvignon (Napa Valley) is plush and inviting, with plenty of depth to the dark cherry, mocha, espresso and chocolate flavors. This juicy, flavorful Cabernet is best enjoyed over the near and medium term. I would give it a bit of air upon opening to allow some of the edginess in the tannin to soften.

Deep garnet-purple colored, the 2015 Cabernet Sauvignon gives up notes of cassis, baked blackberries and preserved plums with hints of fallen leaves, Indian spices and cigar box. Full-bodied and packed with spicy black fruit flavors, it has a firm backbone and just enough freshness to lift the long finish.
