94 POINTS - "Blackcurrant, blueberry and black-truffle aromas and flavors. It’s full-bodied with creamy tannins and a beautiful finish. Lovely balance to this. Crafted tannins. Drinkable now, but better after 2022." - James Suckling
90 POINTS - "It's a more upfront, supple Cabernet compared to the single vineyard and has lots of cassis and currant fruits, notes of lead pencil and graphite, medium to full body, and terrific purity of fruit. The tannins are chewier here, but this still has loads of upfront appeal and charm as well as the density and balance to keep for over a decade." - Jeb Dunnuck

JML (Jung Min Lee – Secret Door owner) is the inspiration for all the Secret Door wines. This powerhouse second label wine from Secret Door is JML. It's a serious wine, and just glorious richness without being sweet or heavy. It is a statement about the founder but also signal that this wine is different from the two single vineyard primary Cabernet Sauvignon wines made for Secret Door.
