95 POINTS -Jeb Dunnuck

"Beautiful crème de cassis, tobacco, leafy herbs, chocolate, and scorched earth nuances define the bouquet of the 2018 Cabernet Sauvignon Lithology Napa Valley, a rich, ripe, pedal-to-the-metal Cabernet. With sweet tannins, a terrific sense of opulence complemented by sound structure and notable balance, and a great finish, it’s a prime candidate for drinking any time over the coming 15-20 years. This cuvée comes from a mix of Rutherford, Oakville, and Napa Valley fruit and spent 20 months in 63% new French oak." - Jeb Dunnuck
