The palate is deep and rich with terrific flavor density and marvelous weight and depth. This is a steal at this price point. ### Eric Guido, Vinous 94 / 100 > An utterly seductive bouquet of dusty dried roses, incense, dried orange peels and wild strawberries makes the 2022 Cabernet Sauvignon Red Mountain impossible to ignore. This wine is deeply textural, nearly creamy in feel, with a core of ripe red and black fruits elevated by hints of citrus and spice. It leaves a coating of sweet tannins offset by nuances of black tea and dark chocolate as the 2022 finishes with fantastic length. The team at Matthews is on to something here. I can’t wait to explore future vintages. ### Sean Sullivan, Northwest Wine Report 93 / 100 > Fruit for this wine comes from five vineyards. All varietal, it was aged 21 months in French oak (100% new). The aromas lead with notes of high percentage cacao dark chocolate, dark roasted coffee bean, cherry, orange rind, and black raspberry. The palate is supple, flavorful, and polished. There’s sneaky richness.
