JEB DUNNUCK 98+ POINTS - "Another powerful, structured effort in this lineup, the 2023 Cabernet Sauvignon Monastery Block offers red and black currants, spicy wood, graphite, and crushed stone, with an almost scorched earth, Graves-like character. It's rich, powerful, dense, and concentrated, with a fleshy mid-palate and a blockbuster finish. There are roughly 1,955 cases of this brilliant wine that deserves 4-5 years of bottle age and will keep for two decades. Drink 2029-2049."
WINE SPECTATOR 96 POINTS - "This bursts with winey flavors of açaí, blackberry and boysenberry paste, while its brambly structure and juicy edge provide a rock-solid backboard. Loads of licorice snap, apple wood and ink notes fill in through the back end, which is supported by a dense graphite spine that adds serious length and drive. Best from 2028 through 2043."
