Score 94/100 · Lisa Perrotti-Brown MW, Wine Advocate, May 2018
The 1987 Cabernet Sauvignon Signature Reserve (100% Cabernet Sauvignon) is medium brick in color with a beautiful nose of chocolate-covered cherries, dried red currants and cassis with touches of potpourri, Chinese five spice and vanilla pod. Medium to full-bodied, it fills the palate with ripe black and red currants flavors, supported by a rock-solid frame of grainy tannins and great freshness, finishing long and layered.
