點擊次數：4716

An agreeable and elegant style, with subtle cherry, currant and dried berry flavors, showing touches of cedar, sage and black tea. Drink now through 2019. 1,400 cases made. –JL

Well-built, if trim and tannic, with a core of dried berry, sage and cedar, and ending with roasted herb notes. Best from 2013 through 2023. 650 cases made. –JL

A big, hard, dry Cabernet whose mountain tannins need quite some time to resolve. Right now they’re tough as nails, although the blackberry fruit is so brilliant and intense, it punches right through. Give this dramatic wine at least six years, and it could well develop beyond the next decade. ——S.H.(11/1/2011)—— 94
