James Suckling 96 

Deep, dark and spicy with aromas of black and red currants, graphite, potpourri, dried flowers, herbs and wet river stones. The palate is full-bodied, offering generous texture, fine-grained tannins and a long, mouthwatering finish. Great tension and purity matched by plenty of generosity.

Jeb Dunnuck 95

Rocking aromatics of ripe, sweet cassis, graphite, spring flowers, and hints of classy, spicy oak all emerge from the 2023 Cabernet Sauvignon. It's medium to full-bodied, has a focused, elegant mouthfeel, nicely integrated acidity, and a great finish. This is an incredibly classy, satisfying, and classic Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon that should keep for 15-20 years if well stored. Drink 2025-2045.
