Reviews

Vinous Media 94

The 2022 Cabernet Sauvignon Signature includes 5% Malbec. It presents notes of ash and bell pepper, complemented by fine wood nuances. The intense palate reveals hints of mint and cassis. This well crafted wine offers medium richness and reactive tannins, finishing juicy and long with expressive fruit.

James Suckling 93

Blackcurrants, blue fruit, crushed stone, black olives and fresh herbs. Medium-bodied with creamy fine tannins and a bright and vivid finish. Polished. Really delicious now but will improve. Real cab with balance.

Deep red color. This wine has vibrant aromas of black fruit, tobacco and pepper with spicy-floral hints. It has an intense and well-balanced acidity. The oak is beautifully integrated with elegant and fine-grained tannins. A subtle minerality provides freshness and good length. Pair with beef, pork, lamb, quail and other game birds. Also, it pairs well with cream-based sauces.
