A nose of roasted chestnut, morello cherry pie, wild strawberry, crème de cassis, clove-studded ham and licorice fill the glass, giving a sense of the huge structure and power on tap. In the mouth, the wine displays intense fruit and structure, with polished tannins surrounding the fat, layered, lush mouthfeel. The finish soars and promises a huge future in the cellar.
93 points Wine Spectator – A polished, ripe, forward style, with creamed plum and cassis notes, layered with mocha, melted black licorice and applewood elements. Picks up a pretty floral lift through the lengthy finish. Drink now through 2028.
94 points Robert Parker's Wine Advocate – One-hundred percent Cabernet Sauvignon aged for 21 months in 100% new French oak, the 2016 Cabernet Sauvignon Artefact is very deep purple-black in color and sings of crème de cassis, baked black berries and mulberries with wafts of preserved plums, roasted coffee beans, licorice, tar and tilled soil. Full-bodied, rich and packed with black fruit and savory layers, it has a firm, grainy frame with a lovely backbone and a very long finish.
