Score 92/100 · James Suckling, Apr 2019

This offers a fresh array of bright red berries, as well as a floral edge to the nose. Quite dense and concentrated in the mouth with slightly tangy acidity that holds boysenberry and mulberry flavors fresh. Smooth yet defined tannins. Drink or hold.

Deeper purple-colored, the 2016 Cabernet Sauvignon Protagonist (95% Cabernet Sauvignon, 3% Syrah, and 2% Cabernet Franc) offers a more straightforward, ripe bouquet of cassis, scorched earth, graphite, and spice. It's full-bodied, nicely concentrated, and powerful on the palate yet still stays balanced and lively, with nicely integrated acidity. It needs 2-3 years of bottle age to develop more complexity but is a beautiful wine from this team.
