Score 95/100 · Drink 2016-2041, Robert Parker, Dec 2015

The 2013 Cabernet Sauvignon Coliseum Block is a glorious dense, ruby/purple color, with unbelievable purity and richness, super-sweet crème de cassis fruit, graphite and blackberries, and a stunningly full-bodied, opulent palate, a flawless integration of tannin, acidity, alcohol and wood. This full-throttle, stunning Cabernet Sauvignon should drink well for 20-25 years, although it’s accessible at present.

The 2013 Coliseum Block, 80% Cabernet Sauvignon and 20% Merlot, exudes dark fruit, lavender, spice, menthol and leather. Suave, supple and beautifully expressive, the Coliseum Block is another wine that stands out for its succulent personality and terrific balance. Readers won't have to delay gratification too long here, the 2013 is absolutely delicious.
