RATINGS

91Robert M. Parker Jr.

...one of the finest Dry Creek Cabernets I have ever tasted. Aromas of graphite, blueberries, blackberries, spring flowers...a silky finish that lasts for 40+ seconds. Drink this superb value...

90Stephen Tanzer

Deep medium ruby. Black fruits, violet, licorice, earth and sage on the slightly stunted nose. Tightly wound and juicy, with a slight peppery edge to the black fruit, mineral and licorice flavors...
