Product Description
RP97 "Deep garnet colored with a hint of purple, the 2012 Proprietary Red bursts from the glass with flamboyant red and black cherry preserves, warm cassis, baked plums and blueberry compote scents with touches of Indian spices, fragrant earth, pencil lead and Ceylon tea plus a waft of cedar chest. Built like a skyscraper, the full-bodied palate is completely packed with black fruit and savory layers with a very firm, grainy frame and loads of freshness, finishing very long and very earthy. A behemoth of a wine?this is one for the hedonists! (LPB)" (December 2018)

JD98 "More powerful, with darker currants, iron, chocolate, and hints of spring flowers, the 2012 Proprietary Red is incredibly seamless and elegant, with full-bodied richness as well as just about perfect tannins. It shows the classic opulence and sexiness of the 2012 vintage while staying light on its feet and graceful." JD Feb. 2023
