Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, 90 points: The 2013 Cabernet Sauvignon Anthology enhances the richness of their basic Cabernet Sauvignon. It has a denser, darker ruby/purple color. Loads of crème de cassis, licorice and floral notes. The wine is medium to...

jamessuckling.com, 95 points: Very floral and fresh with dark berry, lemon rind and hints of cloves and spice. Medium to full body, firm and silky tannins and a pretty finish of fruit, smoke, toasted oak and more spice. Better in 2019. Outstanding for...

jamessuckling.com, 98 points: Fabulous subtle aromas of black currants, violets and lilacs with a hot stone undertone. Full-bodied and dense, it shows such wonderful energy and synergy that delivers a firm yet gentle tannin backbone and complex...

Wine Spectator, 91 points: Solidly built, with a tarry frame that integrates nicely into the core of steeped plum and blackberry fruit. A melted licorice edge drives through on the finish, while the fruit wins out easily. Best from 2018 through...

Decanter, 95 points: It was a great pleasure to visit Rajat Parr in Santa Barbara at the beginning of this year and to see some of the extreme sites his team are farming. Since 2011, Raj and his winemaker Sashi Moorman have been producing...

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, 95 points: Another terrific example of Blackbird is the 2014 Proprietary Red Paramour, a fabulous blend of 84% Cabernet Franc, 9% Cabernet Sauvignon and 7% Merlot. The Cabernet Franc comes from the Stagecoach Vineyard. Consultant...

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, 94 points: Blackcurrants, black raspberries, graphite, leafy herbs and even a hint of bay leaf all emerge from the 2014 Walla Walla Cabernet Sauvignon, and it's deep, rich and beautifully concentrated in the vintage. Made from 81%...

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, 94 points: From an excellent vintage, especially for Pinot Noir, Gosset's golden-yellow 2006 Grand Millésime Brut (which blends 56% Pinot Noir with 44% Chardonnay and was disgorged after eight years on the lees) displays a deep...

Wine Enthusiast, 91 points: There's a wondrously savory nose on this bottling from a longtime grower in the region, with aromas of anise, crushed marjoram, soy, purple flowers and gravel. The light but complex character carries into the palate...

Wine Spectator, 92 points: Rather perfumy up front, with savory, mint and incense notes leading the way for silky cherry and raspberry coulis flavors. The finish is lined with subtle tobacco, warm stone and floral hints, ending with a light balsam...

jamessuckling.com, 93 points: Aromas of red licorice with green olives, sage bush and plums. Full body, chewy and round tannins. Lots of fruit. From a vineyard planted in the occidental part of Rioja Alavesa in a village called Lanziego. Structured...

jamessuckling.com, 97 points: This is incredible with ripe and rich fruit and dark berries, wet earth, and hints of mahogany. Full to medium body, firm tannins, and a beautiful finish. So long and intense. The dried fruit and acid contrast is...

jamessuckling.com, 95 points: There's so much peppermint and spice on the nose as well as walnuts, cedar and eucalyptus, and even crab apples. Lime zest, lots of ash and burnt oranges, too. The freshness here really takes your breath away and there's...
