What Critics Think
Vinous - Eric Guido : 91 Points
(10/2023) The 2021 Red Blend Estate opens with a dark and brooding blend of crushed ashen stones, grilled herbs, violet pastille and blackberries. This is juicy and round in feel, with vibrant acidity and masses of ripe red and blue fruits. It finishes long and finely structured with dusty tannins, leaving hints of licorice and confectionary spice to fade. This is a blend of 92% Merlot, 7% Cabernet Sauvignon and 1% Cabernet Franc. Drinking Window: 2025 - 2028.
James Suckling : 92 Points
(3/23/2023) A sleek and flavorful red with aromas of dark raspberries, licorice, orange peel, toasted hazelnuts and bay leaves. Full-bodied with a fine-tannin frame. Excellent balance. 92% merlot, 7% cabernet sauvignon and 1% cabernet franc. Drink or hold.
