"A lovingly crafted wine from a relative newcomer to the Napa Valley scene. The intense dark color in the glass is followed by an equally intense nose of dark fruit, plus hints of dark spice. On the palate, the flavors are also intense, with a luxurious texture. The finish is well balanced, with bright notes."

"Entirely varietal, this is a boldly flavored, structured and complex mountain-grown wine, tense and brimming in tannin. The juicy core of cherry, cassis and currant complements the darker, more brooding elements of tobacco, clove and herb. This should do well over time; enjoy best from 2026–2031. Virginie BOONE"

"The 2014 Cabernet Sauvignon is 100% Cabernet aged 20 months in 86% new French oak, with the typical suspects in terms of cooperage – Darnajou, Taransaud, and Remond. This opaque purple-colored wine has plenty of mulberry and blackcurrant fruit along with hints of blackberries, camphor and incense. The are some notes of unsmoked cigar and licorice as well. Ripe, medium to full-bodied and luscious, it is a classic to drink over the next 15 or more years. - RP"
