Score 92/100 · James Suckling, Feb 2019

A ripe and slightly sweet, cabernet-based red with fine vanilla oak, but also generous, supple tannins. Soft but clean finish. Drink now.

Cute from the same cloth as the 2014, the 2015 Cabernet Sauvignon NVD shows the vintage style nicely with its focused, elegant, yet concentrated profile. Black raspberries, toasted spices, cassis and dried earth all emerge from this high-quality, classic, balanced Cabernet Sauvignon that will keep for 15-20 years.

Score 92/100 · Lisa Perrotti-Brown MW, Wine Advocate, Oct 2017

Composed of 100% Cabernet Sauvignon, sourced from vineyards on the eastern side of the valley (Calistoga, Howell Mountain, Pritchard Hill and Soda Canyon), the 2015 NVD Cabernet Sauvignon gives up a deep garnet-purple color and fresh, crunchy black berry, plum, wild blueberry and gentle Provence herbs notes with hints of cedar chest and forest floor, plus a touch of Sichuan pepper. Medium to full-bodied with a firm frame of grainy tannins, it delivers loads of lively black and blue fruit, finishing long and earthy. 600 cases were made.
