Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, April 1992
Very opaque in color, with an extraordinary bouquet of super-sweet, jammy fruit, cedar, herbs, wood, and spices, this highly extracted, full-bodied wine still displays considerable tannic clout, as well as plenty of alcohol and concentration in the long finish. Like other wines from Diamond Creek, it has thrown a lot of sediment, so decanting is suggested.

Wine Spectator, November 1998
Healthy color. Mature, but rich and enormously complex, with an array of earthy currant, anise, cedar and herb flavors, turning smooth and supple in texture. Drinks well now but can age further.--1978 California Cabernet retrospective. Drink now through 2002. 468 cases made. –JL
