Vinous

98 POINTS

The 2018 Hexameter is quite reticent today. Dried flowers, sweet red cherry, mint, spice and lavender lend striking nuance to this Cabernet Franc-based blend. The aromatics are simply mesmerizing. Veins of supporting tannin give the wine terrific energy and tons of verve, but the best is very clearly yet to come.

More blue fruits as well as blackcurrants, leafy tobacco, chocolate, candied flowers, and baking spices all emerge from the 2018 Hexameter, and it's full-bodied, with an incredibly pure, seamless texture, polished tannins, and one heck of a great, great finish. While this is unquestionably a mountain wine, with a building sense of minerality, it has a rare sense of elegance and purity, flawless balance, and is just a heavenly, singular wine. Based on 51% Cabernet Franc, 44% Cabernet Sauvignon, and the rest Petit Verdot, aged 20 months in 65% new French oak, it will evolve for 25-30 years. (2021)

Wine Spectator

93 POINTS

Warm and lush in feel, with a loamy tug leading off, followed by steeped black currant and fig fruit flavors inlaid with alder and tobacco accents. Solidly grippy finish lets the loamy edge take the lead. For fans of the more brooding style. Cabernet Franc, Cabernet Sauvignon, Petit Verdot and Merlot. Best from 2022 through 2035. 534 cases made.
