"The 2021 Proprietary Red Wine is based on 50% Cabernet Sauvignon and 25% each of Merlot and Cabernet Franc. It has lots of the classic 2021 density and depth and is full-bodied, with ample ripe black cherries, currants, flowery incense, chocolate, and sandalwood. Complex and beautifully textured, it has ripe tannins and a great finish. This classic Napa Valley red blend will be loved by readers, and while I suspect it will evolve for a decade, I see no reason to delay gratification."

"This Bordeaux-style blend is elegant, approachable and packed with beautiful black fruit. Black cherries, blueberries and hints of mint and bay leaves are wrapped in fine-grained tannins for a sleek texture. 50% cabernet sauvignon, 25% merlot and 25% cabernet franc. it's a new product from Schrader. Drink or hold." - James Suckling, June 1, 2024
