"94 points. The Merlot is once again a blend of Estate Merlot and Estate Cabernet Sauvignon. The resulting wine is a big, world-class red wine capable of improving with bottle aging for 10 to 15 years... On the palate the wine has a big silky mouth feel, well balanced, with flavors of berries, fruit, cocoa, cassis, and spice, and a long spicy finish." - Brix26

``...a big, world-class red wine capable of improving with bottle aging for 10 to 15 years. Complex aromas of black berry fruits, black stone fruits, chocolate, tobacco, spice and floral notes with a mineral overtone.

“93 points.This wine exhibits plenty of plum, black cherry and blackcurrant fruit, mocha and coffee bean in a lush, delicious and opulently textured style. It is drinking beautifully already and will continue to evolve for another decade or more.” - Robert Parker, Wine Advocate
"Fills the glass with enticing scents of ripe plum, ground cocoa, herbs and notes of white pepper. In the mouth, the wine shares delights of dark berries, evolving to rich cherry liqueur. The experience completes with a beautiful long finish. Enjoyed near term, or cellared, this estate Cabernet will provide years of enjoyment. While ideally complementing rich meats such as duck or lamb, enjoy it on it's own or in your favourite comfortable place with a touch of dark chocolate." - T&C
"Densely structured, mixing deep fruit with mineral-tinged tannins. Aromas of currant and olive lead to firm flavors of bitter chocolate, cedar and herb." - Tim Fish, Wine Spectator
"Offers an engaging nose of dark cherries, bay leaves and a subtle hint of anise, which follow you to the finish. The tannins are satiny and evolved, providing the backbone for aging potential. Medium-bodied and well structured, the wine pairs well with a blend of foods - consider a hearty charcuterie platter. Patience upon opening; with time to breath, this offering will reward you the first and for years to follow." - T&C
