This may well be the most expensive Cabernet Franc in California, although it is blended with 10% Cabernet Sauvignon, presumably to give a little more punch to a variety that can be one-dimensional on its own. The result is undeniably fine and delicious. It’s very smooth in the mouth, with soft tannins, and wonderfully complex cherry and herb flavors that have a touch of sweet green pea. The alcohol is high, but the wine wears it well. ——S.H.(12/31/2011)—— 93

A good wine, but incomplete, and shows why Cabernet Franc is a tough variety to bottle on its own. You get a blast of cherries and oak, with sturdy tannins, but the wine lacks depth and complexity.——S.H.(6/1/2010)—— 86
