Tasting Notes
"This wine is expressive of what Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon can be at its best. A juicy core of fruit floods the mouth, laden with ripe cherries, dark plums, peppery herbs and blackberry. Blending from select vineyard blocks in the valley’s middle corridor offers a pleasing blend of supple tannins from Oakville and Rutherford. Darker fruit flavors, richness and bigger, chalkier tannins are from our sites in the Howell Mountain and Stagecoach vineyards along the Vaca mountain range. French oak adds delicate spice and vanilla." – THOMAS PEFFER, Atalon Winemaker
Acclaim
90-92 points – “...possesses abundant quantities of black currant fruit, a liqueur-like aspect to its flavor intensity, sweet tannin, and a long, velvety-textured, juicy finish. Like many top 2001s, it will be approachable upon release, and age well for 10-15 years.” – Robert M. Parker, Jr., The Wine Advocate, August 2002
