The most expensive offering is the 2007 Winston Hill Proprietary Red. Dominated by Cabernet Sauvignon (86%) blended with Petit Verdot, Merlot and Cabernet Franc, production is just under 1,000 cases. The wine is more tightly wound than the Cabernets exhibiting a deep ruby/purple color and a restrained nose that is difficult to coax out of the glass. In the mouth, it reveals sweetness, full-bodied power, beautiful elegance and a sense of graciousness and restraint as well as plenty of flavor, intensity, power and full-bodied appeal. Still hiding much of its character, this 2007 should evolve for at least two decades.
This ancient winery, established in 1884, resurfaced in 1992.
