4 A wonderful wine, delicious and satisfying, and another great example of the ’07 vintage in Napa. Made of the five classic Bordeaux varieties, it’s full-bodied, dry and richly tannic. The flavors are enormously complex, suggesting blackberries, cassis, olive tapenade and cedar, with a long, sweet finish. Already throwing some sediment, it should age well for the next ten years. ——S.H.(4/1/2011)—— 95

Made in the contemporary, cult style of extreme ripeness and early drinkability, this Cab-based Bordeaux blend is very soft, rather sweet and smoky-oaky. It has pastry filling flavors of black cherries, black raspberries, currants and chocolate. Drink now.——S.H.(3/1/2009)—— 87
