There are around 200 cases of the 2010 Cabernet Sauvignon Oakville, one of the bigger wines at 14.9% natural alcohol. A 100% Cabernet Sauvignon, it comes from a single block of the Vine Hill Ranch site in the lower hills of the Mayacamas Mountains on the western edge of Napa Valley. It boasts an inky/purple color along with notes of licorice, charcoal, baking spices, blackberries and cassis. Full-bodied with great intensity, it appears to be a prodigious example of Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon. It will not approach adolescence for another 3-8 years, and it should keep for two to three decades. Tel. (877) 586-9361
