Score 87/100 · Drink 1998-2005, Robert Parker, Dec 1998
The 1996 Cabernet Sauvignon is a reasonably good value given today's frightfully high wine prices. The color is dark ruby, and the nose offers up earthy black currant fruit. The wine displays good richness, a corpulent, chunky mouth-feel, and fine purity. It is already drinking nicely, and should continue to do so for 6-7 years. Tel. (800) 963-9454; Fax (707) 963-7035.
