The softer, lighter 2011 Cabernet Sauvignon Pritchard Hill reveals no hint of herbaceousness. It offers lots of red and black currants intertwined with hints of blueberry liquor, fewer floral notes, and attractive, medium-bodied, juicy fruit that provides allure as well as opulence. Enjoy it over the next 10-12 years. - Robert M. Parker, Jr. (31-10-2013)
Creamy textured from the start and gracefully built, with a subtle mix of mocha, black cherry, anise, cedar, dill and espresso notes, fanning out on the finish and ending with firm, fine-grained tannins. Drink now through 2022. Tasted twice, with consistent notes. 619 cases made. — JL (11/2014)
Good dark red. Pungent if ultimately reticent scents of black fruits, licorice and menthol, along with a classic Naphtha Valley note. Juicy and tight, even youthfully clenched, and a shock to the palate following the '10 and '09 vintages here. This distinctly austere, low-fat version is an outlier in this line-up and will need extended aging to express itself. Finishes with substantial dusty tannins and attractive floral lift.- Stephen Tanzer (05/2017)
