The texture is smooth and polished on this Cabernet Sauvignon, which has a refined tannin structure. The flavors are somewhat compromised, with touches of green mint and peppercorn, but it’s rich enough in blackberries to satisfy. Now–2012. ——S.H.(6/1/2010)—— 86

Sharp and medicinal, with the taste of plastic bandages and cherry-mint candies; very tannic.——S.H.(4/1/2008)—— 81

Here’s a wine with the polished features of a nice Saint-Julien. Opens with refined aromas of cedar and cassis, then turns complex in the mouth, with cherry, raspberry, spice and oak flavors. Feels too soft for cellaring, though.——S.H.(11/1/2007)—— 86

Here’s a plush, well-ripened Cab with forward flavors of black currants, cocoa and oak. It has velvety tannins and finishes with an overall impression of sweetness. Best in its youth.——S.H.(5/1/2005)—— 90

What rich flavors there are here. With this fabulous vintage that ripened the grapes perfectly, it would be hard not to find plush blackberry, cassis and other herb and spice flavors. The tannins are just a bit brash and bold, suggesting a year or so of aging to calm things down. ——S.H.(8/1/2003)—— 87
