Tasting note
The 2013 Cabernet Sauvignon Artemis has a dense ruby/purple color, good solid mouthfeel without the length and richness of it siblings. Nevertheless, this blend of 95% Cabernet Sauvignon, 4% Merlot and 1% Malbec spent 18 months in 29% new French oak and 16% new American oak. It's spicy, earthy and best drunk over the next 8-10 years. Score - 89. (Robert Parker Jr., robertparker.com, Dec. 30, 2015)
90 points – Robert Parker. The Artemis shows lovely depth and richness in its expressive dark fruit, flowers, tar and licorice notes. A supple, generous finish rounds things out nicely.
