"This densely packed wine is layered in gorgeous fruits from raspberries and dark plums to sweet cherries, all wrapped in velvety tannins for a smooth and creamy texture. The subtle oak spices are flooded by the potent fruitiness that lingers long on the finish. Best 2027–2035." -JG, 10/1/23

"The estate-grown 2020 Cabernet Sauvignon Oakville Reserve is a substantial step up from the regular Cab, both in price and quality. Black cherries and cassis are framed by subtle oak shadings, while an earthy undercurrent provides a substantial bass note. Medium to full-bodied, this shows elegance and depth, silky tannins and a lasting finish." -JC, 5/4/23

"Friendly and forward, with a mix of melted licorice, steeped plum, menthol and savory notes that haven't quite melded yet, though a tug of loam through the finish brings some focus in the end. Not for the long haul, but this does need to settle in. Best from 2024 through 2029. 1,150 cases made." -JM, 8/14/23

"The 2020 Cabernet Sauvignon Oakville Reserve is a powerful, bombastic wine. Inky dark fruit, chocolate, lavender, spice, menthol and mocha are all dialed up. This has reasonably good depth, almost enough to balance the harshness of the tannins. The Reserve is a blend mostly from Weitz and Fortuna." -AG, Oct/2022
