Wine Spectator Review - Issue Sep 30, 2021 - Rated 94:
Ripe and focused, with a racy-edged mix of plum, blackberry and black cherry fruit that's steeped with anise, violet and bay leaf notes, underscored with a racy sanguine hint. A flash of alder chimes in through the finish, pulling everything together nicely. Best from 2022 through 2038. 599 cases made. — JM
Robert Parker Wine Advocate Review - Published 31st Mar 2021 - Rated 98:
The 2018 Cabernet Sauvignon Red Rock Terrace is a blend of 78% Cabernet Sauvignon, 13% Merlot, 4.5% Malbec and 4.5% Petit Verdot. Deep garnet-purple, it comes bounding out of the glass with exuberant notes of cassis, plum preserves, cedar chest and pencil lead, plus wafts of black truffles, damp soil and unsmoked cigars. Medium to full-bodied, the palate bursts with black berry flavors and wonderful freshness, packed with loads of subtle savory layers and textured by approachable, plush tannins, finishing on a lingering fragrant earth note. 599 cases were made. - Lisa Perrotti-Brown
James Suckling Review - Published April 28, 2022 - Rated 96:
Blackberries, blueberries, crushed stones, tile and violets. Medium-to full-bodied with fine, silky tannins. Tight, polished and lightly austere. Sweet fruit in the mid-palate. This needs at least four to five years to open and come together. Best after 2026.
