A streak of iron and mineral leads, with rich, ripe, dark fruit flavors following. Compact and tannic, this is extremely young. But compressed in the wine are complex streaks of herb and mineral. The tannins are strong and polished.——P.G.(7/1/2011)—— 93

This 100% Cabernet, from the iconic Klipsun vineyard, has been sourced from the original 1989 planting since the first crop, making Seven Hills Klipsun’s longest standing customer. This offers deep cassis, mineral, and earth flavors, powerful and dense. The Seven Hills style, ordinarily restrained and elegant, suits this vineyard especially well, as it reins in the tendency of Klipsun fruit to go over the top, and become too tannic. This is muscular and deep, but proportionate and detailed.——P.G.(9/1/2010)—— 93

This is 100% varietal and, most unusually for Klipsun, finished at just 13.2% alcohol. Dusty and more concentrated than the Seven Hills vineyard Cab, it brings fruity sweetness on the palate, with sweet blueberry aromas as well. The tannins are astringent, with suggestions of earthy, licorice and iron notes.——P.G.(9/1/2009)—— 89
