The 2010 Cabernet Sauvignon Rockfall,emerges from a block of old vines at the top of Stonestreet’s Alexander Mountain estate. Iron, flowers, dark red fruit, mint and graphite all take shape in the glass. This is a pretty wine, but it appears to lack mid-palate depth and structure. Anticipated maturity: 2013-2020.
Stonestreet is arguably the greatest undiscovered gem in the Kendall-Jackson portfolio. The wines are always distinctive and full of personality. Best of all, they remain exceptionally fairly priced. I hope readers will take the time to check out these fabulous new releases. The Sauvignon-based whites and Chardonnays are especially strong this year. I find less excitement in the 2010 Cabernets, which come across as lacking a bit of depth, most likely owing to rain during the harvest.
