Forward, easy to like and even easier to drink, with plenty of ripe berries, soft textures, licorice and vanilla in the finish. 89 Points

A solid cabernet with mineral, black currants and Asian mushroom. Full body, firm tannins and and long finish. Shows tension and style. Drink or hold.

Score 90/100 · Drink 2014-2029, Robert Parker, Oct 2014
A classic, the 2012 Cabernet Sauvignon offers plenty of crème de cassis and spring flower characteristics as well as beautiful density, sweet tannin and good underlying structure as well as definition. Aged 18 months in French oak, it is a beautiful example of Napa Cabernet Sauvignon that can be drunk young, but will be even better in 3-4 years. It should age effortlessly for 12-15 years.
