95 Points – The Wine International:  Deep garnet-purple in color, the 2021 Bin 704 Cabernet Sauvignon gallops out with energetic notes of black currant jelly, red currants and wild blueberries, leading to hints of menthol, dark chocolate, forest floor, and pencil shavings. The medium to full-bodied palate has a firm line of grainy tannins and a racy line supporting the muscular black fruit flavors, finishing on a mineral note. It was aged for 16 months in French oak barriques, 48% new.

97 Points - Tyson Stelzer:  A Napa cabernet of towering magnitude and epic longevity. A core of deep, dark and powerful blackcurrant and blackberry delivers the impeccable ripeness of an exceptional and moderate season of long, slow ripening. French oak provides perfectly integrated and eloquent support. Fine-grained, sinewy tannins lace together an exceptional finish that will hold it sure for decades to come.

95 Points - James Suckling:  A beautiful, aromatic wine with blackcurrant, cool fruit and hints of minerals and tar. Full-bodied, yet polished and really well manicured. Long and creamy. Shows tension, energy and refinement. Drink after 2024, but so beautiful already. Hard not to drink.
