The 2019 Proprietary Red is deep garnet-purple in color. After a swirl or two notes of blueberry preserves chocolate-covered cherries and warm cassis burst from the glass leading to suggestions of Chinese five spice dusty soil sandalwood and unsmoked cigars. The decadently concentrated full-bodied palate delivers layer upon layer of black fruits and earthy nuances framed by super-firm ripe grainy tannins and seamless freshness finishing long with loads of mineral sparks. This is a beauty!
Jeb Dunnuck: 98 Points
A blend of Cabernet Sauvignon Merlot Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot the 2019 Proprietary Red is a monster of a wine that's unquestionably up with the crème de la crème of the vintage. Blackberries truffle earth chocolate iron and even a hint of black olive defines the nose and it's full-bodied deep rich and incredibly concentrated on the palate. It has lots of background oak but more than enough fruit with a dense layered mid-palate and velvety tannins. It's one of those wines that brings an incredible amount of richness and depth yet somehow stays light on its feet and balanced. It needs to be forgotten for at least 2-4 years and should keep for over two decades.
