Score 89/100 · Drink 2020-2030, Jeb Dunnuck, Jan 2020
Starting with the 2017 Cabernet Sauvignon, which is a blend of 85% Cabernet Sauvignon and 15% Merlot, it has a classic, juicy and upfront style loaded with red and black currants, tobacco, and dried herb aromas and flavors. It has some chewy, dry tannins on the finish yet is a fruity, charming effort to drink over the coming decade.

Score 90/100 · Drink 2019-2031, Lisa Perrotti-Brown MW, Wine Advocate, Oct 2019
Blended of 85% Cabernet Sauvignon and 5% Merlot, the 21017 Cabernet Sauvignon is deep garnet-purple in color with scents of herbs, crushed red and black currants, plum preserves, underbrush and pencil shavings. Medium to full-bodied, the palate is crunchy, lively, firm and chewy with an herbal lift to the finish.
