點(diǎn)擊次數(shù)：4386

The 2009 Cabernet Sauvignon Lake County (87% Cabernet Sauvignon and the rest Petit Verdot and Syrah) is a surprisingly good effort. Its opaque ruby/purple color is accompanied by abundant black currant fruit intermixed with a hint of blueberries. The price is ridiculous for a wine of this quality. Consume it over the next 2-4 years. High quality, appealing, value-priced wines emerge from winemaker Dan Cedarquist under the Matchbook label.Tel. (530) 662-1032 (Crew Wine Co.)

A blend of 87% Cabernet Sauvignon, 7% Petit Verdot and 6% Syrah that’s perfectly serviceable and incredibly herbaceous with green pepper and olive tapenade against soft oak. ——V.B.(2/1/2012)—— 87

A wine that teases at first with an inviting jammy nose and some decent texture and structure that unfortunately doesn’t hold up over time, its blackberry and blueberry flavors devolving into a less palatable touch of green. ——V.B.(4/1/2011)—— 84
