2010: 90 Points - Steve Tanzer, International Wine Cellars: "Full deep ruby. Enticing aromas of blackberry, violet and licorice accented by subtle oak spices. Supple, creamy and sweet, with lovely intensity to its dark berry, dark cherry and bitter chocolate flavors. This fine-grained, nicely balanced, fruit-driven cabernet shows lovely ripeness without any excesses. Finishes with smooth tannins and excellent lift. It's hard to find sweet, attractive California cabernet for under thirty bucks that avoids greenness."

Wine maker notes

The 2006 vintage proved to be a long one with warm days and cool nights that allowed for slow ripening and long hangtime. The Cabernet Sauvignon this year was picked in early November during an Indian summer heat spell that ripened the grapes perfectly creating a stylish wine with great balance and flavor.
