Tasting notes
(a Bordeaux blend from estate and purchased fruit) Dark red. Currant, plum, chocolate and leather on the nose. Supple, sweet and accessible, in a distinctly pliant style. The plum, game and earth flavors are a bit sauvage but nicely ripe and fleshy. Finishes with broad, sweet tannins and a light herbal quality. This is finer-grained and more harmonious today than the Cameron blend.

A limited production cuvee, the 2005 Cabernet Sauvignon Unity (100% Cabernet Sauvignon from the Fisher family vineyards in Napa) possesses chocolate, blackberry, cassis, charcoal, new wood, and spice characteristics. Medium to full-bodied, young and unevolved, it is purely made with good acidity as well as ripe tannin. It will benefit from 2-3 years of cellaring, and should keep for 10-20 years. Tel.
