Robert Parker's Wine Advocate: 95 points

The 2012 Cabernet Sauvignon is dark as a moonless night, with classic blackcurrant, blackberry fruit, moving to blueberries, licorice, creosote and incense. Complex, full-bodied and concentrated, the wine is youthful and has good tangy acidity and sweet tannin. This is a beauty that should age effortlessly for 15-20 years.

Attractive berry, flower and chocolate aromas follow through to a full body, concentrated fruits and a long and flavorful finish. Very fine and polished. Drink or hold.

The 2012 Cabernet Sauvignon is warm, resonant and quite open, all signatures of this pristine Oakville site. Raspberry jam, sweet flowers and tobacco flesh out in a radiant, expressive wine that will drink well upon release. Suave, silky tannins lend polish to the mid-weight finish. The 2012 will be virtually impossible to resist young, but it should also age effortlessly for the next decade or so.
