Score 16/20 · Drink 2017-2025, Jancis Robinson MW, Oct 2015

Dark ruby with a pale rim. Warm, sweet Napa nose with marked acidity on the end. Pretty chewy. Still very youthful but lots of vitality.  (JR)

Score 93/100 · Drink 2016-2032, Antonio Galloni, Vinous, Aug 2015

The highlight in this range, the 2012 Cabernet Sauvignon captures the richness and exuberance of the vintage while keeping a classic, mid-weight feel. Sweet red cherry, plum, cedar, herb and smoke add shades of nuance in a hugely appealing Cabernet Sauvignon that will drink well for another two decades plus. This is the first Frog's Leap Cabernet Sauvignon made from estate fruit.

First estate vintage so lots of younger vines. Quite minty and fresh with a dry end. Transparent. (JR)
