Score 93/100 · Drink 2013-2021, Antonio Galloni, Vinous, Dec 2011

The 2009 Cabernet Sauvignon Rattlesnake Hill brings together all of the elements of the house style in a rich, deep wine with plenty of structure to support its rich, expansive fruit. This is a beautifully centered wine with terrific delineation, intensity and balance. White flowers, spices, mocha, licorice and blueberry jam linger on the focused finish.

The 2009 Cabernet Sauvignon Rattlesnake Hill brings together all of the elements of the house style in a rich, deep wine with plenty of structure to support its rich, expansive fruit. This is a beautifully centered wine with terrific delineation, intensity and balance. White flowers, spices, mocha, licorice and blueberry jam linger on the focused finish. Anticipated maturity: 2012-2021. This is a very strong set of wines from Barnett Vineyards. As good as these wines are - and they are terrific - my sense is that with a little less new oak the fruit would shine through even more. Tel. (707) 963-7075
