THE WINE ADVOCATE: "The 2013 Madrona Ranch hits the magic three-digit score. It is literally a 30- to 45-year wine in itself. It behaves like a ripe, complex first growth Pauillac, with blackberry and crème de cassis, a touch of licorice, black truffle, pen ink and graphite. Incredibly fragrant, extremely full-bodied, with abundant tannin but also enormous fruit extract and richness, it is an amazing wine and a profound effort from Abreu and Grimes."

FALSTAFF: "Tiefdunkles Rubingranat, violette Reflexe, dezente Randaufhellung. Intensive Edelholzwürze, ein Hauch von Zedern, Vanille und Karamell, reife Brombeer-Cassis-Noten, deutliche Röstaromen. Stoffig, extraktsüße Textur, breitet sich am Gaumen aus, besitzt eine feine Säurestruktur, die Tannine sind perfekt eingebaut, bleibt sehr lange haften, reife Beerenfrucht im Nachhall, mineralischer Touch im Abgang, zeigt noch deutlichen Babyspeck, sehr verführerisch."

THE WINE CELLAR INSIDER: "Smoky black cherries, dark chocolate, and boysenberry really get things going in the right direction. There is good intensity, lift and density with a multi-layered finish, silky tannins and ripe, sweet, dark berries galore. The wine was made from a blend of 49% Cabernet Sauvignon, 38% Cabernet Franc, 8% Petit Verdot and 5% Merlot."
