Score 86/100 · Drink 2008-2015, Robert Parker, Dec 2008
The 2005 Cabernet Sauvignon, which includes small amounts of Cabernet Franc and Merlot, reveals a similar dark ruby/purple hue, more herb, red cherry and black currant aromas, medium body, and a pleasant, but uninspiring finish. Drink it over the next 5-7 years. Tel. (800) 588-0298; Fax (707) 967-4012

Good focus and complexity. Full-bodied, with prickly acidity and firm tannins, it needs cellaring to show its center core of ripe blackberry and plum fruit. Cedar, leafy herbs, fig and coffee add interest. (LM) $64
