Score 94/100 · Drink 2023-2037, Antonio Galloni, Vinous, Apr 2020

The 2017 Cabernet Sauvignon Ballard Vineyard is just as alluring today as it was last year. Succulent dark cherry, red plum, blood orange, spice and menthol infuse the 2017 with a ton of character. Silky, plush and super-expressive, the 2017 is a wine of pure and total allure.

Score 93-96/100 · Antonio Galloni, Vinous, May 2019

A wine of power and structure, the 2017 Cabernet Sauvignon Ballard Vineyard is incredibly promising. Inky dark fruit, cured meats, lavender, menthol and spice inform this decidedly virile, potent Cabernet Sauvignon. Yields are down 20%, but the wine is superb. The tannins are a bit searing at this stage, but it is early days.
