Critic Scores

(Napa; 98% Cabernet Sauvignon; 2% Cabernet Franc; the vineyard made famous from the tasting of Paris; pH 3.89; 14.8% alcohol). Incense. Cordite. Flint. Violet and red rose petals. Dense. Intense. Tight. Concentrated. Compact. Full. Rich. Impressively fresh. Svelte. That touch of candlewax again on the palate. Impressive in its disguised power. Iron fist; velvet glove! - Colin Hay

Though slightly restrained at this young age, this is an outstanding wine with the structure and depth of flavor typical of this estate-grown bottling. Blackberries, dried blueberries, creme de cassis, cedar and cinnamon are layered on the palate. Tannins are fine-grained, velvety and well integrated. Drinkable now but best from 2029. - James Suckling
