about this wine:
"Charming, forward and approachable despite its youth. Ripe berries, mocha, toasted malt, incense and jasmine on the nose and palate. The sweet, high-toned nose is followed by a palate that nicely reflects the elegant refinement found year in and year out in our Cabernet...blended with a small amount of Cabernet Franc and aged in fifty to sixty percent new French oak barrels. This wine is consistent in its sleek sophistication, impressive structure and velvety berry flavors vintage after vintage-classic Napa Valley Cabernet in every facet. On average, approximately two thousand cases of this wine produced a year..."

The 2008 Cabernet Sauvignon exhibits a wonderful suppleness and forwardness that is almost atypical for these wines that have such a great track record for standing the test of time. Its dark ruby/purple color is accompanied by aromas of Christmas fruitcake, cedarwood, camphor, black currants and black cherries. The wine has a luscious texture, good opulence and flesh, and a heady finish. It should drink well for 12-15 years.
