The Wine Palate: 95 Punkte
"The 2023 The Tempest is a blend of 61% Merlot, 12% Cabernet Franc, 24% Cabernet Sauvignon, and 3% Petite Sirah. Deep garnet-purple colored, it sails out of the glass with energetic notes of wild blueberries and black raspberries, giving way to an undercurrent of lavender, dark chocolate, cedar chest, and star anise. The full-bodied palate delivers nice bright black and blue fruit layers with lots of spicy sparks and a velvety texture, finishing long and satisfyingly opulent." - Lisa Perrotti-Brown (09/2025)
