Score 88/100 · Stephen Tanzer, Vinous, May 2011

Red-ruby. Redcurrant, coffee, graphite and herbs on the nose, plus a whiff of caramel. Supple and smooth initially, with a redcurrant flavor, then turns a bit dusty with air, showing a lightly medicinal quality to its fruit. Finishes with a light dusting of tannins. This is far less expressive today than the 2008 Cabernet Franc.

Score 89/100 · Drink 2009-2021, Robert Parker, Dec 2009

The seductive, soft, plush 2007 Merlot offers a luscious combination of herb-tinged mocha, chocolate-infused black cherry and currant fruit, plum, and anise. The complex aromas are followed by a lush, succulent wine with dark fruit flavors showing a hint of spicy oak. This beauty should drink well for 10-12 years. As I have written in the past, Michael Keenan has done a fabulous job of ratcheting up the quality of the wines from this Spring Mountain estate. Some of the finest wines of Napa Valley are emerging from Robert Keenan Winery. Tel. (707) 963-9177; Fax (707) 963-8209
