James Suckling 100 points: Unique aromas of citrus fruit such as tangerines and oranges with plum, black cherry, and black currants. Lemon rind too. Full-bodied with ultra-fine tannins that give the wine a precise and focused finish that lasts for minutes. It's really is laser-guided. Savory and subtle, minerally finish. This redefines the greatness of Napa Valley wine and California. 282 cases made.
Robert Parker 97 points The 57-acre estate vineyard includes the Helms Vineyard in Rutherford, which is 100% Cabernet Sauvignon and usually produces small quantities of less than 300 cases. The 2013 Cabernet Sauvignon Helms is sensational. Its opaque purple color, which is common among the 2012 and 2013 Bordeaux varietals in Napa, leads to a spectacularly flamboyant and aromatic nose of earth, graphite, blackberry and cassis. The wine is rich, full-bodied, and again, concentrated, pure and dense, with sweet melted tannins nicely integrated, along with the French oak (about 100% new). This wine has a good 30+ years of upside to it.
