"…intensive, schöne Nase, viel süße, rote Früchte, rote und dunkle Beeren, Cassis und Kirschen, Schoko, wow, extrem komplex, große Struktur und Frische, feine Lakritze- und Tabak-Noten im extrem langen Finale" (09/2024)
Decanter: 96 Punkte
"This full-bodied, rich, and lush Cabernet comes from the hilltop parcel of Hartwell Estate within the Moonracer property. Dark cherry and cocoa powder meld with walnut and cherry wood nuances, while firm, elongated tannins provide structure. The mid-palate builds with a creamy richness, finishing with classic Stags Leap volcanic mineral tension. Bold and expressive now, yet with the right balance and tension to age gracefully—this is a wine to cellar from the 2022 vintage." - Jonathan Cristaldi (02/2025)
