The Tb points given to this wine are the world’s most valid and most up-to-date evaluation of the quality of the wine. Tastingbook points are formed by the Tastingbook algorithm which takes into account the wine ratings of the world's best-known professional wine critics, wine ratings by thousands of tastingbook’s professionals and users, the generally recognised vintage quality and reputation of the vineyard and winery.

The Story

The grapes for this wine are grown near the winery on the eastern rim of the Napa Valley. Up here above the fog, we gracefully ripened the 2012 fruit to achieve what Parker described as "a full bodied, dense, very concentrated style with the vintage's exuberance of full-throttled fruit and power well displayed." We like our Cabernet to show its power and robust energy, but equally important to us is the suave, plush, silky finish on full display in this bottling, which includes 15 percent Merlot. You will love the graphite and crushed rock mineral spine in this Cabernet.

Written Notes

Just 350 cases made. There’s a slight disconnect here between the sweet lush blackberry fruit, which seems very ripe and liqueur-like, and the high acidity. But after a while it begins to show a natural-wine-like purity of fruit, with some elegance. Definitely the outlier in this group, but some interest here. 93/100
