"The 2013 Cabernet Sauvignon Bishop has an opaque, black/purple color, almost super-concentrated crème de cassis notes with chocolate and full-bodied power, but potentially not quite the complexity that is offered by the other cuvées. Nevertheless, this is a mouth-filling, savory, blockbuster, opulent wine that delivers all the goodies."
