Score 91/100 · Drink 1998-2018, Robert Parker, Dec 1998
The 1996 Trilogy, a blend of 44% Cabernet Sauvignon, 40% Merlot, and 16% Cabernet Franc, reveals a saturated dark ruby/purple color, and a gorgeous nose of violets, black currants, pain grille, and minerals. Deep and rich, yet remarkably polished, this medium to full-bodied, beautifully symmetrical wine has everything in the proper place. Although accessible enough to be drunk early in life, its balance suggests a graceful evolution for 15-20 years. It is a distinctive, beautiful wine! All the recent vintages of this wine have been stunning. The turn-around in quality began in the early nineties, and continues unabated. Tel. (707) 963-5711; Fax (707) 963-7518
