Score 96/100 · Drink 2024-2048, Lisa Perrotti-Brown MW, Wine Advocate, Nov 2021

The 2018 Cabernet Sauvignon Audentia Estate is composed of 82% Cabernet Sauvignon, 9% Petite Sirah and 9% Petit Verdot. Deep garnet-purple in color, it bursts with plum preserves, blueberry pie and blackcurrant jelly notes, plus hints of black olive, wild sage, lilacs and Sichuan pepper, plus a touch of crushed rocks. Medium-bodied, tight-knit and delicately styled, it has fantastic energy and a long, shimmery finish.
