Score 92/100 · Josh Raynolds, Jul 2010

(49% cabernet sauvignon, 21% merlot, 11% cabernet franc, 10% malbec and 9% petit verdot) Saturated ruby. Captivating, high-pitched aromas of raspberry, cassis, star anise and fresh rose. Dense, sweet and intense, with solid grip and underlying structure to the sweet red berry and oak spice flavors; an intriguing floral element arrives as the wine opens in the glass. Fleshy and deep but light on its feet. This densely packed wine really stains the palate, finishing long and sweet, with harmonious tannins and a lingering perfume of candied flowers.

Score 92/100 · Drink 2013-2022, Lisa Perrotti-Brown MW, Wine Advocate, Jun 2010

Blended of 49% Cabernet Sauvignon, 21% Merlot, 11% Cabernet Franc, 10% Malbec and 9% Petit Verdot, the 2008 Cabernet Blend was matured 21 months in French oak, 35% new. With a medium to deep garnet/purple color, it reveals pretty aromas of cassis, eucalyptus, chocolate mints, pencil shavings and cloves. It is well structured with medium to firm very fine tannins and medium-high acidity. With a full body, it has a generous amount of fruit lingering into the long finish. Consider drinking this wine from 2013 and it should continue to evolve and give pleasure to 2022+. Importer: Old Bridge Cellars, Napa, CA; www.oldbridgecellars.com
