Score 91-93/100 · Stephen Tanzer, Vinous, May 2008
Good deep ruby-red. Penetrating aromas of blueberry, cassis, graphite, minerals, violet and menthol. Dense, sweet and seamless, with a lovely light touch and enticing floral lift to the crushed black fruit and bitter chocolate flavors. Finishes with substantial but suave tannins and lingering minerality. In a distinctly feminine style but with no shortage of power or intensity.

The thick, unctuously-textured, viscous 2006 Cabernet Sauvignon Vineyard 887 boasts terrific black currant and cassis fruit interwoven with smoky oak and chocolatey espresso notes, followed by a full-bodied, silky finish. Consume it over the next 15 years. (Not yet released) Tel.(707) 963-2134
