| Description: | 94 pts John Platter Honors George Spies & his legendary 1960s cabs. Strict barrel selection from single clone, 15 (94 pts) vibrant & opulent with deep blackcurrant & mulberry, crushed green herb, dusting of cocoa, intense, smooth & age worthy, like 14 *****. 91 pts Wine Enthusiast - There's an assertive, decadently mentholated note at the fore of this wine's bouquet, redolent of Thin Mints and cocoa-dusted brandied cherries, with notes of cassis and black currant leaf as well. The palate is suave and attractive, with a texture like crushed satin and lingering rich berry flavors that are framed by fine yet structured tannins and a solid dose of sweet spice. Lauren Buzzeo 90 pts Wine Spectator - (9/30/19) Crushed strawberry and licorice flavors are vibrant and focused in this medium- to full-bodied version, with herbal and spice notes adding another dimension. Substantial yet elegant, with a hint of graphite on the finish. Best from 2020 through 2026. 500 cases made, 200 cases imported. — Az 90 pts Tim Atkin - Big, bold, serious and strapping, this is a richly oaked, concentrated Cabernet with lots of weight and alcohol and fine-grained tannins. This has the right components, but needs to come together in the bottle. 2020-28 |
