a tremendous cabernet, authoritative and exciting. shows a great structure of acidity and tannins, with a cedar and sweet tobacco earthiness. yet it's also explosive in blackberries, black cherries, red and black currants and anise liqueur. a real accomplishment, and a great compliment to the high-altitude stagecoach vineyard, which straddles the atlas peak and napa valley appellation lines. drink now–2016.
