Score 89/100 · Drink 2013-2019, Antonio Galloni, Vinous, Dec 2012
The 2009 Cabernet Sauvignon Oakville offers up an enticing mélange of sweet dark cherries, menthol, tobacco, incense, pencil shavings and graphite. This juicy, mid-weight Cabernet is delicious today, but also promises to drink well for at least a handful of years.
