The wine is defined by lush, expansive tannins that provide structure and length, promising exceptional aging potential.

Antonio Galloni, Vinous

The 2023 Cabernet Sauvignon Reserve is a very serious wine in the making. Dark, savory and driving in its intensity, the 2023 has so much to offer. Bright acids and incisive beams of tannin shape this vibrant, classy Reserve. Purplish fruit, graphite, sage, menthol and lavender explode onto the saline finish.
