Score 94/100 · Drink 2027-2045, Joe Czerwinski, Wine Advocate, Feb 2025

An all-estate blend of 80% Cabernet Sauvignon and 20% Cabernet Franc, the 2021 Cabernet Sauvignon Profile spent 22 months in 80% new French oak. Delicate floral notes add a welcome flourish to the cassis and black cherry fruit on the nose, while the palate is full-bodied, concentrated, tannic but silky, with a lingering, softly dusty finish. It should have two decades of ageability.

Score 95-97/100 · Jeb Dunnuck, Feb 2023

Based on 78% Cabernet Sauvignon and 22% Cabernet Franc, the 2021 Profile Red Wine sports a deep, inky hue as well as powerful aromatics of black fruits, scorched earth, graphite, and smoked tobacco. A rich, concentrated barrel sample, it has lots of ripe tannins, beautiful overall balance, and outstanding length. This serious, age-worthy wine will need 7-8 years of bottle age and should age gracefully.
