Score 14/20 · Drink 2014-2017, Jancis Robinson MW, Oct 2014

Eye-catching gold-swathed bottle – that is not actually the heaviest. Bright ruby. Very odd, over-the-top sweet oak notes on the nose. Something definitely agricultural! Then really uncomfortably sweet on the palate with aggressive acidity. I'm afraid this is the sort of wine that gets Napa Cab a bad name – in the UK anyway. (JR)
