An offshoot label of Far Niente. This is one of four new Nickel & Nickel single-vineyard Cabernets. It’s tight and brawny, with earth and black plum, but also some sulfur that goes away after breathing and swirling. Concentrated black fruit is supported by espresso notes and chocolate. Finishes full and dry, with evenly spread tannins.——W.E.(11/1/2000)—— 92
