The other top-notch offering is the 2005 Vagabond, a brilliant blend of 60% Syrah and 40% Cabernet Sauvignon. Its dark plum/purple color is accompanied by a rich, sweet bouquet of camphor, blackberries, acacia flowers, and a touch of bacon fat. Beautiful richness, silky texture, and a full-bodied, voluptuous finish suggest this stunning, hedonistic as well as intellectually pleasing wine will provide immense pleasure over the next 7-8 years. While proprietor Claus Janzen continues to fine-tune his Cabernet Sauvignon program, the strength of his portfolio remains his innovative blends. Previously recommended: 2004 Vagabond (91), 2004 Pazzo (90), 2004 Bacio Divino (90). Tel. and Fax (707) 942-8464

Made from Syrah and Cabernet Sauvignon grown in various parts of Napa Valley, this wine is soft, direct and quite delicious. Its very refined mouthfeel has flavors of black currants, cherries, cola, chocolate, violets, cedar and spices. Made in the modern cult style, it should be best now and for a couple years.——S.H.(6/1/2008)—— 89
