Score 89/100 · James Suckling, Feb 2019

At once savory and chocolatey with bold blackberries and plums, the nose awakens high expectations that the medium-to full-bodied palate, showing a touch of green character, doesn’t quite live up to. However, that does make this rather food-friendly. Drink or hold.

Score 89/100 · Drink 2019-2030, Lisa Perrotti-Brown MW, Wine Advocate, Oct 2018

Deep garnet-purple colored, the 2016 Cabernet Sauvignon opens with baked blackcurrants, crushed black berries and chocolate-covered cherries scents with hints of dried mint, bay leaves and pencil shavings. Full-bodied and packed with plenty of juicy fruit, it has a chewy frame and uncomplicated finish.
