Dave rated this wine as 90/100 with the following review:

Took a while to open up but was fantastic with a filet

Martin Geleynse rated this wine as 92/100 with the following review:

The opulent, fleshy, sexy, consumer friendly 2012 Cabernet Sauvignon possesses a dense ruby/purple color as well as oodles of blackcurrant fruit intermixed with floral and blueberry notes. Lush and plush, it can be drunk now or cellared for 10-15 years, although such well-balanced and forward wines as this can sometimes age two decades or more. Score - 92. (Robert Parker Jr., robertparker.com, Oct. 2014)

Jane Staples rated this wine as 92/100 with the following review:

A full-bodied Napa Cab Sauv with a fragrant ripe cassis& strawberry nose and delicious palate of ripe cassis, strawberry, vanilla, milk chocolate and slight mint. Smooth, harmonious and well-balanced with a long ripe cassis finish. This one is definitely on my list for Santa!
Tasted Nov 2015

Matt Steeves rated this wine as 92/100 with the following review:

Rich and decadent, the nose is full of sweet baking spices, mocha, stewed dark fruit, and espresso notes. Full-bodied, rich, and juicy, this premium Napa Cab would be fantastic paried with grilled New York strip loin, or alongside prime rib roast. Tasted November 2014. 92 points.
