The Napa Cabernet Sauvignon is more limited in availability than the Alexander Valley, but there are now close to 33,000 cases being produced. The 2001 (31,430 cases of 86% Cabernet Sauvignon, 8% Merlot, 4% Cabernet Franc, 2% Petit Verdot) offers a big, smoky, herb, black currant, tobacco, spice box, and barbecue spice-scented bouquet, and broad, medium to full-bodied, concentrated, sweet, jammy flavors with plenty of sexy, toasty American oak in the background. It is a hedonistic fleshpot of a wine to drink now and over the next 10-12 years. Score:92. Robert Parker, February 05, 2005

"Stale and leathery. Tasted twice, with consistent notes. 24,128 cases made. 76 points" Wine Spectator

"Firm and tightly wound, with a band of cedar, leather and dried currant. It shortens up a bit on the finish, but is complex and appealing if a bit understated. Drink now through 2009. 1,958 cases made. 86 points" Wine Spectator

It has dark berry and cassis flavors with some soft tannins. A good value balanced effort.
