The 2021 Winemaker's Cuvee Red Blend is composed of 86% Cabernet Sauvignon, 10% Cabernet Franc, and the rest Merlot and Petit Verdot. A saturated red color, it opens in the glass to reveal a luxurious and layered profile with notes of cassis, menthol, polished leather, and mocha. Full-bodied and velvety on the palate, it’s generous, offering a balanced and ripe feel without feeling weighty, and it has an elegantly rich and tapered finish. ~ 94 Jeb Dunnuck
This solidly built, brawny wine is full-bodied, ripe in flavor, and moderately tannic. Toasted walnuts, roasted plums, and tawny spices are braced by good, sandy tannins. Drink or hold. Screw cap. ~ 92 James Suckling
This Cabernet-dominated blend is intense but charming, with a creamy chocolate-covered-cherry aroma wafting from the glass. The palate is midweight and bright, with cherry, raspberry, cinnamon, and cocoa-powder flavors coating the palate, leading to a grippy, tannic finish. ~ 90 Wine Enthusiast
