"The 2008 Cariad, a blend of 54% Cabernet Sauvignon, 32% Merlot, 7% Cabernet Franc and the balance Petit Verdot, has been tweaked a bit since I tasted it last year. Another stunning effort, it possesses a Bordeaux-like structural profile along with a dense purple color and a big, sweet perfume of graphite, burning embers, licorice, black currants and blackberries." (95+ pts. Robert Parker, Wine Advocate, Dec. 2010)

“Medium ruby. Knockout nose combines black raspberry, blackberry, licorice, minerals, violet, mocha, musky soil tones and subtle spices. Wonderfully dense but alive, with an impression of fresh acidity giving the palate clarity, energy and a light touch. Not at all a thick wine--in fact, even a bit imploded today. This stands out for its primary energy and finishing lift. As backward as it is, it already communicates a strong personality and nicely restrained sweetness. In a reticent phase and likely to be long-lived. Finishes with serious dusty, spicy tannins and excellent length.” (94+ pts. Stephen Tanzer, Vinous, March 2018)
