An awesome wine—this is so massively intense in blackberry, blueberry and cassis flavors, it’s hard to believe. From the first sip though the middle palate, it’s seemingly sweet with a fruity essence, but the finish is dry and firm. Drink now and for 8–10 years, at the very least. — (10/1/2012) —96

A near replica of the ’07, which was a fabulous wine that required cellaring. So does this ’08. It’s layered and complex in deep, black and blue berry and fruit essence, especially the ripest blackberries, yet with tantalizing hints of earth, minerals and the green olive note you often find in the best cool-climate Cabernets. The tannins are young and profound. Need time. Give it until after 2014 to begin to come around. ——S.H.(11/1/2011)—— 94

Strong now in fruity flavor and oak, with potent mountain tannins, this tiny-production Cab wants some time to knit together. It’s rich and extracted in blackberry tart with the sweet smoky crust, black currant jam, blueberry, dark chocolate, anise and cedar flavors that finish in a complex swirl of dusty spices. Try after 2013.——S.H.(11/1/2010)—— 93
