2015 Dana Estates Cabernet Sauvignon Lotus Vineyard, Napa Valley
Wine Advocate #227 (Oct 2016)
Rating: 98-100
Their first-growth terroir, the 2015 Cabernet Sauvignon Lotus Vineyard is 95% Cabernet Sauvignon and 5% Petit Verdot. This looks like another potentially perfect wine with an incredible floral/violet-like nose interwoven with blueberries, blackberries and cassis. The vibrancy on the palate is rather remarkable given the wine’s great intensity, massive fruit and incredible length and richness. This is an otherworldly, rather surreal effort that will spend 25 months in 90% new French oak. They expect to produce about 300 cases of this wine. Robert Parker (October 2016)

Deep garnet-purple colored, the 2015 Cabernet Sauvignon Hershey Vineyard leaps from the glass with blueberry preserves, menthol and espresso notes giving way to notions of baking spices, black pepper and cedar chest. Medium to full-bodied, vibrant and expressive, it has a firm frame of velvety, approachable tannins and wonderful vivacity, finishing long and fruity. Lisa Perotti-Brown, Robert Parker (October 2016)

Deep garnet-purple in color, the 2015 Cabernet Sauvignon Helms Vineyard has a gregarious nose of freshly crushed blackcurrants, blackberries and mulberries with touches of red roses, Indian spices, dried mint and unsmoked cigars. Medium-bodied,fine, fresh, and elegantly styled, it delivers tons of blackberry and spicy layers with a fine-grained backbone and very long, lively finish.
