Score 95/100 · James Suckling, Mar 2018
This small-production wine shows a very fine tannin texture that gives definition and brightness. There are lavender and violet aromas and flavors to the dark fruits. Full-bodied, poised and focused. Knows who it is. Drink in 2020.

Coming from a single vineyard in Yountville, the 2014 Cabernet Sauvignon Sleeping Lady Vineyard has a very deep garnet-purple color and pronounced nose of crème de cassis, black forest cake and dried mulberries with hints of espresso, cinnamon stick, cardamom, pencil shavings and tar. Full-bodied, big, richly fruited and packed with black berry preserves flavors, it has a firm, chewy backbone and a very long, spice-driven finish.
