Score 90/100 · Drink 1994-2003, Robert Parker, Oct 1993

The 1988 is one of the leading candidates for "Cabernet of the Vintage". Dark ruby/purple, with a moderately intense, licorice, herb, and cassis-scented bouquet, this opulently styled, full-bodied, intense Cabernet Sauvignon coats the palate with viscous, rich flavors, and has a finish that must last for nearly 40 seconds. Laurel Glen made a strict selection in 1988, and the commitment to excellence by proprietor Patrick Campbell is evident in this generously constituted, impressive, albeit expensive Cabernet. Anticipated maturity: Now-2003. Proprietor Patrick Campbell's superb Cabernet Sauvignon vineyard on the slopes overlooking the Sonoma Valley has proven to be one of the finest sources for Cabernet in California. The use of traditional winemaking techniques designed not to strip the wine results in a wine that is full of character.
