TASTING NOTES: Exploding from the glass with
bold dark fruit notes, this sumptuous blend offers layers of ripe black fruits,
blueberry, dark cherry, plum, licorice, graphite and smoked tobacco with shaved
dark chocolate. These rich flavors coat the palate where a wave of delicious
oak spices, cinnamon, all spice and toasted marshmallow lead you to the lengthy
and mouthwatering finish. The hefty dose of Syrah in this blend every year adds
an attractive component of seductive dark fruit, plush integrated tannins, and
a persistent peppery finish with hints of earth and forest floor adding to its
complexity. Very approachable and well balanced when young. Drink now or hold
for up to 10+ years. TASTING NOTES: Exploding from the glass with

Owen Bargreen: (96 pts)
The 2023 'Black Label Estate Limited Edition' is powerful, well-structured stuff that stands jet black in the glass. Needing about 30 minutes in the decanter to be fully open, this shows off gorgeous black florals with dark chocolate shavings, wet gravel and shades of black licorice on the nose. The palate is seamless and round throughout the drinking experience, with an amazing iron, sanguine character. This has to be the finest edition of this wine yet and be sure to give it plenty of air if enjoying in its heady, mineral-laden youth. Drink 2026-2040- 96 points
The Wine Palate: Lisa Perrotti-Brown (95 pts)
Deep garnet-purple in color, the 2023 VIADER Black Label (23% Cabernet Sauvignon, 26% Syrah, 29% Malbec, 9%Cabernet Franc, 13% Grenache) is rich, expansive, and complex. Plum preserves, blueberry, and cherry notes are seasoned with cracked pepper, garrigue, and a cool touch of menthol. Big and full-bodied, it delivers great tension for its size--firm, grainy tannins and a long, driving line of acidity keep it energetic. The finish is persistent, savory-spiced, and deeplyfruited. 95 points Food Pairings: Beef Stews, Grilled Lamb, Sausages, Burger Drinking Window: 2026-2035
