Greatly improved over the 2004, this single-vineyard wine shows lots of breed and elegance. It’s classically built, with firm, rich tannins framing flavors of red and black cherries, herbs and cedar.——S.H.(6/1/2009)—— 90

Young and appealing now for its vibrant, upfront cherry and oak flavors, this supple Cab has a lush, fine array of dusty tannins, as well as fine acidity. It’s beautifully balanced, a tremendously fruity wine that’s has a classic structure and elegance.——S.H.(12/15/2005)—— 91
