JEB DUNNUCK 100 POINTS - "Another perfect wine is the 2018 Hexe, a blend of 57% Grenache, 15% Mourvèdre, 13% Graciano, 10% Syrah, and the rest Petite Sirah that’s a 60/40 split from the James Berry and G2 vineyards. Full-bodied, concentrated, and incredibly pure, its vivid purple (it’s not completely opaque) color is followed by ample dark berry and black cherry fruits as well as notes of candied orange, licorice, peppery herbs, and an incredible sense of minerality. It reminds me of a great vintage of Janasse’s Châteauneuf du Pape Vieilles Vignes and is another tour de force from winemaker Justin Smith that will benefit from short-term cellaring and keep for 15+ years."
ANTONIO GALLONI'S VINOUS MEDIA 98 POINTS - "Deep, shimmering ruby. Hugely perfumed aromas of ripe black and blue fruits, star anise, cola and mocha are complemented by a suave floral topnote. Pliant, expansive and appealingly sweet, offering lush black raspberry, cherry cola, vanilla, fruitcake and baking spice flavors underscored by a vibrant, smoky mineral quality. At once rich and energetic in character, finishing wonderfully long and precise, with solid spicy thrust, well-integrated tannins and reverberating florality. "
