"The 2016 DB 4 is a gorgeous entry-level offering from Bryant. Dark cherry, plum, mocha, espresso and licorice all flesh out in a radiant, wonderfully inviting wine that will be ready to deliver serious pleasure pretty much upon release. Soft curves and generous, plush fruit add to the wine's considerable appeal. What a gorgeous wine this is." -Antonio Galloni

"The 2016 Proprietary Red DB4 is composed of 73% Cabernet Sauvignon, 20% Merlot, 5% Cabernet Franc and 2% Petit Verdot, sourced from three David Abreu properties: Madrona, Thorevilos and Lucia Howell Mountain. In recent years, some of the Bryant estate fruit has been incorporated. Deep garnet-purple colored, it opens with lovely spice cake and plums notions over a cassis and red rose core with hints of pencil lead and cedar chest. The palate is full, rich, opulent and spicy with lovely plush tannins and seamless freshness, finishing long. Very polished!" -Lisa Perrotti-Brown

"Extremely concentrated, this is dripping with pure liquorice root and pencil lead alongside tons of deep cassis. Brightly polished tannins, buff and sleek, this is certainly full throttle with clear, yet well integrated, oak notes. Powerful and with impact."
