95 points Wine Enthusiast: "An awesome Cabernet, so elegant, powerful and refined. As softly attractive as it is, it has a reserve of power that should enable it to age effortlessly. Ripe, sweet tannins house exorbitant flavors of blackberries and cassis, accented with new oak. It makes for a full-bodied, showy 100% Cabernet, drinkable now and over the next 15 years.

This sets the stage for a full-bodied, powerful yet elegant, beautifully proportioned effort with great depth and volume. It conceals plenty of structure and will effortless...
90 points Connoisseurs Guide: "Led in the nose by a solid measure of ripe-cherry fruit and filled out with a trim bit of sweet oak and lightly accented with herbs and a touch of dried brush, thisk lithe and supple young wine is long on precise Merlot character right up until the time that its Cabernet tannins kick in. It gets a bit ragged in the latter going but never so much so that aging will not fix, and, while not a wine we would pour tonight, we see very good things ahead some four to six years down the line."
