Score 94/100 · Antonio Galloni, Vinous, Dec 2012

The 2009 Cabernet Sauvignon Precious is rich, textured and quite pretty. Dark plums, cherries, menthol and spices are layered into this attractive medium-bodied wine. Firm tannins support a textured, inviting finish laced with tar, smoke and licorice. Deceptively medium in body, the 2009 fleshes out beautifully with time in the glass, turning quite powerful and intense. Anticipated maturity: 2014-2024.

Score 94/100 · Stephen Tanzer, Vinous, May 2012

Good full, deep red. Elegant, floral aromas of raspberry, loam and cola. Then surprisingly tight on the palate, with ripe acids framing and energizing the reticent raspberry, floral and mineral flavors. Youthfully penetrating cabernet, finishing with terrific red berry intensity and firm but harmonious tannins.

The medium garnet colored 2009 Cabernet Sauvignon Precious gives up wonderful licorice, tea and tapenade scents with nuances of cigars and earth. The full-bodied palate is rich, savory, firm and seductive, finishing long.
