Score 92/100 · Drink 2011-2031, Robert Parker, Dec 2009

The 2006 Cabernet Sauvignon (79% Cabernet Sauvignon, 15% Malbec, and 6% Petit Verdot) is a refined, gracious, elegant effort displaying loads of black and red currants intermixed with licorice, mountain flora, and underbrush characteristics. Medium to full-bodied with superb concentration, sweet tannin (especially for a 2006 mountain wine), and good acidity as well as purity, this terrific wine has a Bordeaux-like weight along with the beautiful ripeness and purity of a Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon. Give it 2-3 years of cellaring, and drink it over the following two decades. The Davies family, long-time proprietors of the Schramsberg vineyards in Napa Valley, fashion these wines from Diamond Mountain. Tel: 707-942-6668

Delicious even at three years, with voluptuous texture and juicy red and black fruit. Gentle herbal leafiness, briary wild-berry fruit, cedar, graphite and liquorice. Long, velvety finish. (LM)
