The price suggests that the winery considers this an important Cabernet, and it may be, but it does require aging. It’s fresh and young and tannicly aggressive right now, with direct blackberry, cherry and oak flavors, and not really showing all that well. But neither does young Bordeaux. My hunch is that it’s a cellar bet. Try after 2007. ——S.H.(5/1/2007)—— 88
