95 Points - Wine Spectator

Appealingly briary yet refined in structure, this Zinfandel slowly unfurls handsome cherry and blueberry flavors, which take on roasted sage, green peppercorn and licorice notes toward zesty tannins. Drink now through 2031.

93 Points - Wine Enthusiast

This is a blend of five vineyard-designates and it shows serious power and elegance in one cohesive body of thick richness and weight. Tightly wound in tannin, with ample toasted oak, it offers satisfying layers of black raspberry, cherry, cola and white pepper, overdelivering on its price.

94 Points - Wine Spectator

Deeply structured yet agile on its feet, with rich raspberry, roasted anise and cracked pepper flavors that fan out on the detailed finish. Drink now through 2032.
