the vineyard, high in the mayacamas mountains, is famous for the tannic quality of its red wines. you'll find this '08 cab tough and astringent. but you'll also easily discover the vast richness of chocolate, cherry, blackberry and currant fruit, so deep and impressive, and the finish is totally dry and balanced. this cabernet clearly needs time. give it until 2014 to begin to come around.
