The wine has a tremendous nose of dark fruit, highlighted by black currants. Hand selected new French Oak barrels provide a complimentary toastiness to this wine. It has a medium plus boy with a fine acid and tannin balance. Enjoy the long finish. A classic! Recommended to drink from 2010-2030.

92 Point Review - Robert Parker There is also a 2006 Cabernet Sauvignon 25th Anniversary cuvee, which may have robbed the regular Cabernet of most of its richness. The outstanding 25th Anniversary bottling, which includes 25% Cabernet from the estate vineyards in Oakville, reveals a dense ruby/purple color, abundant cedar, black currant, and licorice notes, medium to full body, and 12-15 years of aging potential.

91 Point Review - Stephen Tanzer Good deep ruby-red. Mellow aromas and flavors of plum, mocha, sweet tobacco and earth. Supple, sweet and fat with fruit; a distinctly plump and seamless wine with a full middle and some enlivening claret-like notes of tobacco and fresh herbs. Finishes broad, with serious tannins supported by the wine’s stuffing.
