The entry level red, the dark ruby/purple 2008 Cabernet Sauvignon Napa Valley, has a compelling nose of licorice, earth, and black currants. With supple texture, medium body, juicy fruit, and a nice follow-through on the palate, it is already delicious and ideal for drinking over the next 7-10 years. Barrel samples of the 2009 Napa Cabernet Sauvignon, 2009 Stags Leap Cabernet Sauvignon and 2009 Fortis Cabernet Sauvignon all showed forward fruit, deep color, charming tannins, and perhaps less weight than the 2008s or 2007s, but lots of style and elegance. They will be drinkable early on and I am sure will put on additional weight during their upbringing in barrel.Tel. (800) 575-9777; Fax (707) 253-1493
