This is a good, rich, 100% Cabernet for drinking now with fancy meats. It’s dry and smooth in tannins, with blackberry, cherry, cassis, Dr. Pepper cola, herb and cedar flavors that finish a little sweet.——S.H.(11/1/2011)—— 88

Showing a big improvement over the so-so 2003, this single-vineyard bottling by Wellington is still a little rustic. But it has a rich, bright core of briary wild blackberry and cherry fruit flavors, with an enormous array of Asian spices, and is dry and firmly tannic into the finish. ——S.H.(11/1/2008)—— 88

Kind of soft and collapsed, but dry, with earthy cherry and blackberry flavors, this Cab hails from the cooler west side of the valley. It has a good edge of tannins.——S.H.(11/1/2007)—— 85
