95 points (Steve Heimoff)
"As soon as I opened the bottle the aromas of black currants and cassis erupted, announcing a young, ripe and fancy Cabernet Sauvignon. This was confirmed in the mouth. Superbly flavored, with additional complexities of anisette and chocolate, freshly crushed white pepper, and the sweet, toasty notes of new oak. The tannins are thick, but they’re so softly sweet that the wine is delicious even at this young age. A wonderful, world-class Napa Valley red wine, offering endless waves of flavor through a long finish, and the alcohol offers bracing warmth. Ready to drink now and should develop for many years." - Steve Heimoff
