"This enjoyable version exhibits a rich, complex core of mocha-laced dark berry, graphite, crushed rock, black licorice and integrated herb flavors, all well-distributed and maintaining focus on the long, persistent finish. Ends with ripe, chewy tannins. Drink now through 2030.—J.L."

"Graphite, smoke, savory herbs, cedar and tobacco flesh out in the 2012 Cabernet Sauvignon Tamara Vineyard. This open-knit, perfumed Cabernet dazzles from start to finish. This is a fabulous showing from Kinsella. - Antonio Galloni"
