Expert Reviews – Vintage 2014

James Suckling 94 Points | A firm and cool Napa cabernet sauvignon with dark berry, chili, light roasted coffee beans. Full body, firm and lightly chewy tannins and a flavorful finish. Some iodine. A solid cabernet! Look for this one. Give it three or four years to soften.

Jeb Dunnuck 92 Points | Leading off the 2014s, the 2014 Cabernet Sauvignon NVD offers a ripe, forward, opulent style that’s packed with fruit. Blackcurrants, truffle, smoked tobacco and earthy soil notes give way to a rich, medium to full-bodied, pure, polished red that has sweet tannin and a great finish.

The Wine Advocate 90 Points | The 2014 Cabernet Sauvignon NVD is essentially from the same sources, but slightly higher production. I preferred, marginally, the 2013 because of its voluptuous texture, velvety tannins, front-end loaded, juicy blackcurrant, blackberry fruit, plushness and impressive purity and length.
