Score 93/100 · Stephen Tanzer, Vinous, May 2013

(14.3% alcohol): Good, full ruby-red. Dark aromas of cassis, blackberry and licorice. Plush, intense and sweet, but with terrific acid grip energizing the juicy flavors of currant and tobacco. A step up in density and texture from the State Ranch bottling. Finishes long and precise, with suave tannins and lush yet vibrant dark berry fruit. A great showing today.

A deceptively medium-bodied wine, the 2009 Cabernet Sauvignon Hayne Vineyard is gracious and beautifully balanced from start to finish. The soft, supple fruit and harmonious tannins make for a Cabernet Sauvignon that should drink well pretty much upon release and drink well for another decade beyond that.
