2016	Keenan Winery	Cabernet Sauvignon	The 2016 Cabernet Sauvignon is deep garnet-purple colored with a plums, cassis and baked berries nose with violets, cedar, cigars and earth. The medium to full-bodied mouth is firm and grainy with decent concentration and an earthy finish.	Wine Advocate	90		2019-10-31
2015	Keenan Winery	Cabernet Sauvignon Napa Valley	Produced from 100% Cabernet Sauvignon and displaying a deep garnet-purple color and nose of expressive blackberries, blueberries and pencil shavings plus lovely dried leaves, rose hip tea and fragrant earth nuances, the 2015 Cabernet Sauvignon is medium to full-bodied in the firm, taut, energetic and lively mouth, with grainy tannins and a long, earthy finish.

2016	Keenan Winery	Cabernet Sauvignon Reserve Spring Mountain	Containing 7% Cabernet Franc, the deep garnet-purple colored 2016 Cabernet Sauvignon Reserve Spring Mountain offers up cassis, cedar, toast and earth on the nose with bay leaves, mint and chocolate nuances. Medium-bodied and elegant, it has firm, chewy tannins and is vibrant in the mouth, finishing with a minty lift.	Wine Advocate	94		2019-10-31
2015	Keenan Winery	Cabernet Sauvignon Reserve Spring Mountain District	The 2015 Cabernet Sauvignon Reserve Spring Mountain displays a deep garnet-purple color with lovely cassis, violets and warm plums notes plus hints of baking spices, bay leaves, lavender and cedar chest. Medium-bodied and firmly structured, it is ripe, vibrant and wonderfully layered with lively, crunchy fruit and fine-grained tannins, finishing long.	Wine Advocate	95		2019-10-31
2016	Keenan Winery	Mernet Reserve	Another of the highlights in this range, the 2016 Red Blend Mernet Reserve is wonderfully dense and fleshy in the glass. Succulent red cherry and pomegranate fruit fill out as this succulent, racy blend shows off its alluring personality. The Mernet is impeccable in its balance.	Vinous	95		2019-10-31
2015	Keenan Winery	Mernet Reserve	The 2015 Red Blend Mernet Reserve, equal parts Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon, is another superb wine from Keenan. Dense and pliant, but with tons of supporting structure, the 2015 is a marvelous wine in every way. A rush of succulent dark cherry, herbs and wild flowers are some of the many notes that fill out the wine's ample, resonant frame. What a gorgeous wine this is.	Vinous	94		2019-10-31
2014	Keenan Winery	Mernet Reserve Spring Mountain District	The 2014 Red Blend Mernet Reserve is a total knock-out. Firm, structured and vibrant, the 2014 bristles with energy. Striking mid-palate sweetness and overall depth add to the wine's unmistakable personality. Deceptive at first because of its mid-weight structure, the 2014 has more than enough pedigree to drink well for many years. The Mernet is equal parts Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon from the estate's Spring Mountain vineyard.	Vinous	96		2019-10-31
2019	Decibel Wines	Giunta Malbec Nouveau	For this lighter style, the Malbec colour is quite a dark purple. The nose is fresh with deep electric violets, plums and hints of fresh dill, dusty tamarillo and fruit cocktail. The front palate is lush with a punchy, bright mid palate. The finish lingers with a bit of black currant, Rose hip that is very refreshing. Overall the wine is soft up front, crunchy in the middle and bright and fresh on the finish.	Wine Orbit	92		2019-10-26
2016	Decibel Wines	Testify Red	Fleshy plum, five spice and rich tamarillo on the first breath. The nose evolves into savoury notes with a light cassis aroma. The palate is structured straight through with dusty, drying tannins and lengthy dried tea notes. After first taste, the wine evolves into a fuller, rounder palate with distinctly Gimblett Gravels angular tannin structure built to last for many, many years.	Wine Orbit	93		2019-10-25
2016	Cedric Parpette	Cote Rotie Montmain	Opaque ruby. Lively, mineral- and smoke-accented blueberry, cherry and olive aromas pick up floral and incense accents with air. Sweet, energetic black and blue fruit and violet pastille flavors open up steadily on the back half. In a juicy, appealingly forward style, showing a vibrant mineral quality that adds cut to an impressively long, floral-driven finish.	Vinous	92		2019-10-25
