Patria - Avoyelles Oakville 2023 (750ml)

99 Points Jeb Dunnuck 

"The flagship here and all from Oakville Ranch Vineyard, the 2023 Avoyelles Oakville comes from a co-ferment of Cabernet Sauvignon and Cabernet Franc that was aged 22 months in 100% new French oak. Its deep purple hue is followed by killer aromatics of currants, darker berries, chocolate, violets, and graphite, and it's deep, rich, and full-bodied on the palate, with velvety building tannins and incredible length. It's sensational in every way.” (JD) 

95-97 Points Wine Advocate 

"A blend of 55% Cabernet Franc and 45% Cabernet Sauvignon, the 2023 Avoyelles Oakville Ranch is a terrific effort. Extravagant florals join with dark plum notes on the nose, while the full-bodied palate is round, expansive, creamy and supple, then firm and long on the finish.” (JC)
