"Vibrant and seamless from the start, this wine opens with a rush of ripe red plum, cherry liqueur, and dark berry compote, layered with hints of baking spice and deeper savory tones..."
“Full-bodied, round, and voluptuous on the palate, with remarkable purity and sweet fruit, this big, rich, opulent effort will evolve for 12-15 years.” – Jeb Dunnuck, JebDunnuck.com. 94 Points.
"On the palate, juicy dark fruits unfold with balance and restraint, as fine, dimpled tannins drive with power, simultaneously lending structure through the dynamic finish..."
"...perfectly balanced, has full-bodied richness, and tons of character. Drink bottles anytime over the coming 15 years.” —Jeb Dunnuck, JebDunnuck.com. 96 Points.
Soaring aromatics, bright red/purplish fruit, rose petal, blood orange and exotic spice are all dialed up in this explosive, potent Oakville Cabernet Sauvignon. The 2021 is seriously impressive.

“This densely packed wine is layered in gorgeous fruits...all wrapped in velvety tannins for a smooth and creamy texture. The subtle oak spices are flooded by the potent fruitiness that lingers long on the finish...” —Jim Gordon, Wine Enthisiast. 95 Points.
"...It's full-bodied, perhaps a bit more powerful, richer and more tannic, with hints of mocha and cigar box as well. Long and sultry on the finish, it picks up extra complexity in the form of salted licorice, black olives and earth.” —Joe Czerwinski, Wine Advocate. 96 Points.
As Winemaker Peter Heitz puts it, “I never thought it could be possible to observe a more exquisite wine than the 2013 Pierra….But then the 2019 Pierra came into view.”
