Score 88/100 · Drink 2014-2020, Jeb Dunnuck, Wine Advocate, Aug 2013

Slightly straightforward, with solid aromas and flavors of currants, herbs, pepper and loads of tobacco, the Foxen 7200 2010 Cabernet Sauvignon Grassini Vineyard is medium-bodied, balanced and has good overall richness. Enjoy it through 2020 or so. Drink 2014-2020. This was a classy, character filled lineup of wines by the folks at Foxen. Tel. (805) 937-4251; www.foxenvineyard.com

The 2010 Cabernet Sauvignon Grassini Family Vineyard is another impeccable wine. Dark red cherries, blackberries, flowers, mint and licorice literally explode from the glass in an exuberant, full-bodied wine loaded with personality. It is fascinating to compare these two Happy Canyon Cabernets side by side. The Vogelzang is a bit more restrained, while the Grassini is all about opulence. The Grassini is also about 1% higher in alcohol. Foxen gave the 2010 22 months in French oak barrels, 75% new.
