Considered the top wine of the estate (aside from the tiny production Patrimony), the 2014 Soul Of A Lion will be bottled in August (most likely by the time you read this). It shows how good the vintage was for this estate and is a broad, deep, rich and layered blend of 83% Cabernet Sauvignon, 14% Cabernet Franc and a splash of Petit Verdot that's brought up all in new French oak. Its inky purple color is followed by terrific notes of plums, creme de cassis, garrigue and exotic flowers, and it hits the palate with no hard edges, gorgeous purity and polished tannin, all suggesting it will evolve gracefully. Score - 94-96+. (Jeb Dunnuck, robertparker.com, Aug. 30, 2016)
