Score 93/100 · Drink 2003-2020, Robert Parker, Dec 2000

A spectacular offering is the 1997 Cabernet Sauvignon Reserve. A blend of 90% Cabernet Sauvignon and 10% Cabernet Franc that spends 36 months in barrel prior to being bottled without fining and filtration, it is a beautifully fashioned, smoky, rich, super-concentrated, thick effort loaded with black cherry, cassis, earthy, smoky, toasty oak aromas and flavors as well as a full-bodied, unctuous finish. This terrific Cabernet requires another 3-4 years of cellaring; it should keep for two decades. (Not yet released) Tel. (707) 833-4134; Fax (707) 833-4200
