| Description: | Antonio Galloni 97 Points - "Winemaker Nick Gislason describes 2019 as a year with a small crop and small berries. That intensity and richness very much comes through in the wines, both of which are superb. There is a sense of vividness, of detail, in the 2019s that elevates them into the stratosphere.". "The 2019 The Flight, the estate's Merlot-based wine, is dark, powerful and brooding in demeanor, almost shockingly so. The natural concentration of a year with low yields and small berries is very much in evidence. A rush of black cherry, plum, graphite, lavender and blue/purplish fruit builds as this virile, explosive wine shows off its arresting beauty. In a word: impressive.". Jeb Dunnuck 94 Points - "Leading off with the 2019 The Flight, which is 65% Merlot, 30% Cabernet Sauvignon, and 5% Cabernet Franc, this has a beautiful perfume of red cherries, raspberries, and flowers. Medium to full-bodied on the palate, it shows the finesse, elegance, and lively style favored at this estate today, with perfectly integrated tannins and both richness and freshness. I love its overall balance as well as length, and it will benefit from just a few years of bottle age and should have upwards of two decades of overall longevity." |
