It’s certainly a strong effort, even for this benchmark producer, featuring layers of dark, dense cassis, blackberry and blueberry fruit. The new oak component has been completely subsumed by the fruit in this medium- to full-bodied wine. Greater density and concentration somehow come without weight, supported by silky tannins. Featuring a lovely, elegant mouthfeel and tremendous length on the finish, it should stand tall among the many legends produced at this estate.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e100 Points - The Wine Palate (Lisa Perotti Brown)\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe 2023 Cabernet Sauvignon sports a deep garnet-purple color. It needs a little shaking to wake up notes of fresh blackberries, kirsch, and blackcurrant jelly, followed by nuances of violets, black olives, crushed rocks, and mossy tree bark. Medium-bodied, the palate is filled with energetic black and red berry layers, supported by firm, grainy tannins and wonderful tension, finishing long and earthy. This will easily cellar for 30 years+. 100 points (December 2025)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e99 Points - James Suckling “This is a divine wine that is delicious now and will be for decades to come.
