Excellent
structure, tannins and acidity, with sturdy currant,
blackberry, fresh earth, mineral and a whiff of tar and
tobacco. A remarkably complex and impeccably balanced young
wine that flexes its tannic muscle on the finish.
1998 Dominus - Napa Valley
Earthy,
Elegant and refined Cabernet blend, delivering layers of
currant, tar, black cherry, cedar, coffee and anise, all
sharply focused and framed by just the right amount of
tannin.

Robert
Parker's "el Dorado" vintage in Bordeaux
Proprietor
Eric Prissette's 2000 may be the finest wine he ever made.
A blend of 85% Merlot, 10% Cabernet Franc and 5% Cabernet
Sauvignon. It exhibits a dense ruby/purple color with
little evolution, abundant notes of melted licorice, black
currants, blackberries, coffee and chocolate and just a hint
of toasty oak in the background. It is a full-bodied,
layered, rich wine to enjoy over the next decade.
