93-Points by Wine Enthusiast.
Sourced from Bosché, Sycamore, and Red Barn Ranch, this wine displays all the classic notes of the Rutherford AVA. 
This bold, ripe but nicely polished wine wraps black cherries, black currants and mint in moderate, fine-grained tannins that will help carry it for several years. Subtle cinnamon, clove and cedar accents keep it interesting on the finish.
Blend: 81% Cabernet Sauvignon, 10% Merlot, 8% Petit Verdot, 1% Cabernet Franc, aging for 24 months in 66% new French oak
