The 1992 Cabernet Sauvignon (only 1,600 cases) is a powerful, backward, cassis-scented and flavored wine with an opaque ruby/purple color, and youthful, unevolved aromas and flavors. It cuts a deep swath on the palate, but it requires 4-5 years of cellaring. Look for this wine to be more user-friendly by 2000 and last for 15-20 years thereafter. Fans of Newton should recognize that the winery is beginning to produce some Viognier from a 5-acre vineyard. The first crop yielded just one barrel, but the wine was striking in its richness, intensity, and faithful varietal character. While the 1994 will not be released commercially, hopefully the 1995 will be of similar merit. Tel. (707) 963-9000
