I've said it before, and I'll say it again: I think dollar-for-dollar, this is probably one of the very best entry-level Cabs from Napa Valley. Yes, this Oakville estate makes some much more expensive wines, and yes, I'm sure they buy some of the fruit that goes into this Napa Valley wine, but it sure tastes like Oakville Cabernet. It's packed with cassis, blackberry, cherry and mocha flavors, and is supple enough to drink young, but it has enough structure to last for a good while, and it has enough acidity to balance the rich black fruit. It's just plain delicious. (93 Points)
