"The 2023 Au Sommet is fabulous. It's bright and aromatic, with lovely undertones of blue/purplish fruit, lavender, mint and sweet spice. Floral and mineral shadings build into a long finish shaped by filigreed tannins. It's an exquisite, nuanced Cabernet Sauvignon. Superb."

"So charming and elegant, especially for a Napa Valley cabernet, with a nervy, firm structure and great acidity framing fresh red fruits and savory notes, as well as earth and toast nuances. Fine-grained tannins around fresh cherry, cranberry, sour-cherry, black-olive and blackcurrant flavors. Drinkable now and best from 2030."
