Give this one some time to breathe, as it’s a bit tight on opening. With a relatively modest 13.5% alcohol, it’s not as ripe as some Napa Cabs, and it’s also fairly tannic. There’s an astringent, tea-like edge to the cassis and cherries. Finely structured and bone dry, this Cab should develop well over the next eight years.——S.H.(10/1/2007)—— 90
