Tasting Notes

Wine Spectator: 93 Points
This features a well-endowed core of warmed cassis and steeped plum fruit here, splashed with a sassafras note and backed by roasted applewood and melted black licorice on the finish. Rich in feel throughout. Best from 2022 through 2034.


Robert Parker: 92 Points
The deep purple-black colored 2018 Cabernet Sauvignon Lyndenhurst comes bounding out of the glass with exuberant scents of fresh blackcurrants, black raspberries and Morello cherries plus hints of lavender, pencil lead and bouquet garni with a touch of Sichuan pepper. Medium to full-bodied, the palate is charged with electric energy, framed by grainy tannins and bold freshness, finishing with great intensity and purity. -Lisa Perrotti-Brown, The Wine Advocate


Wine Enthusiast: 95 Points
Leading with 80% Cabernet Sauvignon, followed by small amounts of Malbec, Merlot, Petit Verdot and Cabernet Franc, this is a structured, savory and sleek wine. Blackberry, cocoa powder and a light grip of tannin are balanced and elegantly layered across the lengthy palate. VIRGINIE BOONE


Jeb Dunnuck: 94 Points
A wine well worth purchasing and cellaring, the 2018 Cabernet Sauvignon Lyndenhurst sports a dense purple hue as well as classic Cabernet notes of blackcurrants, Asian spices, violets, licorice, and tobacco. Beautifully rich, full-bodied, and concentrated, it's one heck of a second wine that can be drunk today or cellared for 15-20 years. Jeb Dunnuck


Antonio Galloni: 94 Points
The 2018 Cabernet Sauvignon Lyndenhurst is a fabulous wine that shows just how compelling the vintage is, even among mid-tier offerings. Blackberry, graphite, cloves, licorice and lavender all build in the glass. The Lyndenhurst Cabernet is usually much more approachable, but the 2018 is a real powerhouse. I would give the tannins at least a few years to soften. This is impressive, to say the least.- Antonio Galloni, Vinous Media


James Suckling: 93 Points
Black plums, blueberries, chocolate, cloves and dried leaves. Black olives, too. It’s full-bodied with firm, fine-grained tannins. Chewy, generous layers of dark fruit and chocolate. Try from 2022.
