Score 96/100 · James Suckling, Mar 2022

This shows linear, fine tannins that run down the length of the wine. Pine cone, resin, blackberry, strawberry, blackcurrant and ink. Citrusy, too. 93% cabernet sauvignon with cabernet franc, merlot and petite verdot. This needs four or five years come together. Try after 2026.

Score 93-95/100 · Lisa Perrotti-Brown MW, Wine Advocate, Oct 2019

A barrel sample of 93% Cabernet Sauvignon, 4% Malbec and 3% Cabernet Franc, the 2017 Cabernet Sauvignon Fortis is opaque garnet-purple colored and bursts from the glass with black currant cordial, black forest cake and licorice with hints of black olives, charcuterie and pencil shavings. The palate is medium to full-bodied, firm, grainy and tightly knit with bags of black fruit preserves and ripe tannins, with lovely freshness lifting the finish.
