"Gorgeous and inviting, the 2021 Cabernet Sauvignon is loaded with inky dark fruit, leather, mocha and grilled herbs that all run through. Readers will find a super-classic, structured Cabernet with a ton of character and personality"

"Rich and nicely layered, offering black currant and blackberry fruit that moves through slowly, carried by loam, singed alder and tobacco notes. A solid structure courses underneath, with an echo of warm earth lingering amid the fruit. Best from 2025 through 2037. ‡J.M."
