Wine Advocate: 96 Points
The 2012 Cabernet Sauvignon Estate rivals 2013 in intensity, complexity and ageability, albeit with slightly less tannic power and length. An exuberant, gravelly, savory nose continuously adds layers of herbal complexity with aeration. The palate combines an enveloping opulence with a dusty, leathery grace, producing an explosive and cascading finish of fine tannins and energetic acidity. Every aspect of this wine gains shape and dimension with time in the glass, taking the taster for a beautiful ride along the way.
Vinous: 94 Points
The 2012 Cabernet Sauvignon is a rich, intense wine that tastes much riper than the 13% stated on the label. Black cherry jam, plum, game, mocha, licorice and dark spices are all pushed forward.
