Score 93/100 · Robert Parker, Dec 2008

The more supple 2005 Cabernet Sauvignon Phaedrus is a blend of 86% Cabernet Sauvignon and the rest Malbec and Petit Verdot. Aged 16 months in one-half new French oak, there are 719 cases of this beauty. A dense ruby/purple color is accompanied by loads of creme de cassis fruit intermingled with notions of roasted herbs, coffee beans, licorice, and a subtle touch of background oak. The noble sweetness of the tannins, luscious, velvety textured mid-palate, and long finish suggest this wine can be drunk now or cellared for 12-15+ years. Karen Culler produces these limited production cuvees that are well-worth a search of the marketplace. Tel. (707) 963 6042; Fax (707) 963-4427
