Score 95/100 · Drink 2017-2042, Robert Parker, Jun 2012

The 2002 Cabernet Sauvignon Estate is an amazingly rich, full-throttle effort boasting notes of blackberries, creme de cassis, acacia flowers, graphite and wood smoke. This massive effort tastes more like a mountain-styled Cabernet Sauvignon than one from the Oakville valley floor. It should be forgotten for another 5-6 years and drunk over the following quarter of a century. Neither of these offerings from Plumpjack Winery (the former site of the classic Cabernet Sauvignons from Villa Mt. Eden produced in the 1970's and early 1980's) has barely budged in their development since I tasted them from bottle in October, 2004. Tel. (707) 945-1220; Fax (707) 944-0744
