description: In a word, massive, a masterpiece of Napa Cabernet from a great vintage. A barrel selection from three vineyards, and a mere 275 cases produced. This wine pours dark and thick, and announces itself with smoky oak aromas riding over cassis. The flavors are rich in blackberries and herbs, framed in rich, thick, dusty tannins. As good as it is, it would be a shame to drink it now. Best after 2004, and for many years afterward.
variety: Cabernet Sauvignon
