95 Points, Wine Enthusiast: "Extremely elegant and restrained at first on the nose, this bottling eventually shows gravel and crushed rocks, with hints of blackberry and forest underbrush also emerging. A very firm structure weaves together an incredibly well-integrated wine, with dense mulberry and dried-fennel notes that morph into crushed herbs with time. Drink 2018 2032." 12/16 —————————————————- The 2012 Cabernet Sauvignon Estate (78% Cabernet Sauvignon, 10% Merlot, 10% Cabernet Franc and the rest Petit Verdot) is beautiful. Giving up lots of black and blue fruits, tobacco leaf, sweet oak and graphite, this fabulous Santa Cruz Mountain Cabernet is medium to full-bodied, nicely concentrated and focused, with fine tannin and impeccable balance. It shows its class on the lengthy finish as well. It’s a baby and needs to be forgotten for 4-5 years and will have more than two decades of overall longevity.————————————————————————————————————————————————————– Rating: 94  Drink Date 2019 – 2032 Reviewed by Jeb Dunnuck Issue Date 28th Oct 2016 Source 227, The Wine Advocate
