Score 96/100 · Drink 2014-2030, Robert Parker, Oct 2014
The flagship, black-labeled 2012 Cabernet Sauvignon Fortis Napa Valley is truly a brilliant wine. Everything is perfectly proportioned: wood, acidity, alcohol and tannin. Notes of black cherry, blackcurrant and blueberry soar from the wine’s aromas. A touch of wood, lead pencil shavings and spring flowers are also present. The wine is full-bodied, but delicately strung together, à la high fashion. This is a real beauty – full-bodied, yet stylish. While drinkable now, it promises to continue to age well and possibly evolve for another 12-15+ years.
