"The 2015 Cabernet Sauvignon is deep garnet-purple colored with baked blueberries, mulberries and prunes plus underlying spice cake scents and hints of plum pudding and coffee. The mouth is full-bodied with firm, chewy tannins and layers of dried berries and baking spice flavors, finishing with great length. - Lisa Perrotti-Brown"
- Robert Parker's Wine Advocate (Issue #234, December 2017), 90 pts
"Waxy and reductive at first, this wine opens slowly to reveal black olive, plum and a sinewy texture. It has balanced power on the midpalate alongside a mix of oaky char, dark chocolate and clove that finish in unison. - VIRGINIE BOONE"
"Cherries, plums, dried herbs, earth, charred bark and baking spices on the nose. Medium-to full-bodied with powdery tannins. Concentrated, yet fresh and juicy with a flavorful finish."
"The 2019 Cabernet Sauvignon is a bold, powerful wine. Big, brawny tannins wrap around a core of black fruit, spice, leather and menthol. This strapping, brooding Chiles Valley Cabernet delivers plenty of impact. It is perhaps a bit rustic, but full of character at the same time.. - Antonio GALLONI."
"This classic-style, well-structured and complex wine holds deep black olive, black cherry and tobacco flavors in a comfortable grip of tannins, giving it great balance and potential longevity. - Jim GORDON"
"Sweet purple fruits and spices lift from the glass, carrying forward into the palate on fine grained tannins and a juicy midpalate. Flowering, Mediterranean herbs and a hint of cocoa emerge through the finish. — Elaine CHUKAN BROWN."
