'The 2013 Paul Sauer is a more or less 70% Cabernet Sauvignon, 20% Cabernet Franc and 10% Merlot that is matured 24 months in 100% new French oak (Seguin Moreau, Demptos and Nadalie). It has an attractive bouquet, a mixture of red and black fruit intermingling with star anise and a touch of Chinese five-spice. The palate is medium-bodied and very well balanced with a fine seam of acidity, very impressive purity, and a suave and sophisticated finish that renders this Paul Sauer (as always) a superb value. It will surely give two decades of drinking pleasure.' (Tasted in 2017) - Neal Martin, Wine Advocate, 93/100
'This has a winey core of steeped currant and fig fruit, lined with singed cinnamon and tobacco notes. Shows a juicy tug through the finish, with an echo of mesquite. Displays solid range and depth. Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc and Merlot. Drink now through 2020.' (Tasted in 2017) – James Molesworth, Wine Spectator, 92/100
