Written Notes

100% Cabernet Sauvignon. Bright, full ruby. Primary aromas of cassis, licorice, fruitcake and dark chocolate. Powerful, dense and sweet, but with lovely floral lift perfuming the middle palate. This is carrying a boatload of tannins but has the sheer sweetness of material to support its structure and power. Really saturates the mouth and lingers on the aftertaste. (A sample of the 2008 was less powerful than the '07 but sexy and pure.) – Stephen Tanzer (May 2012) 93p.

Extremely tight and backward, dry, herbal and savory, with complex, concentrated sage, dill and dried currant flavors. Full-bodied and intense, ending with black licorice-laced, mouthcoating tannins. A youngster in need of cellaring. Best from 2012 through 2019. 190 cases made. (Aug 31, 2010)  – Wine Spectator
