Equally profound is the 1994 Cabernet Sauvignon Reserve Speciale. I originally rated this wine 95 points, and it’s a point better now at age 21. In 1997, I predicted the outer limit of its window of drinkability to be 2027, but I think it will actually go longer than that. About 28% American oak was used in the aging this wine, and most of the fruit came from a blend of vineyards such as th Wildwood, Smothers, Balbi, and Belle Terre. Full-bodied, rich and concentrated, with gorgeous blueberry and blackberry fruit, some spice box, forest floor and licorice, this killer wine is just entering its plateau of full maturity, where it should stay for another 15 or more years. - Robert M. Parker, Jr.

A tremendous wine that's beautifully balanced and deeply complex. Smooth rich and silky with fresh youthful layers of plum currant cigar box and black cherry it's sharply focused and remarkably harmonious with ripe fleshy tannins on the finish and a pretty mocha-scented aftertaste. Should go another 10 with ease.
