Earthy, tannic and mushroomy, this renowned Diamond Creek red slowly emerges from its shell, unveiling tight currant, black cherry, anise, sage and cedar notes; there's a lot of substance in this young wine, be patient. Best from 2002 through 2013. 1,250 cases made. (JL)

My favorite of this trio of elegant, stylish Cabernet Sauvignons made by Heidi Barrett for owner Dr. Madaiah Revana, is the 2002 Cabernet Sauvignon.

86 points, Wine Spectator, September 30, 2007
A mix of moderately ripe, supple currant and cedary oak flavors that pick up a hint of mint and dried berry. Balanced, if shy on depth and richness.

Stag's Leap Wine Cellars

Pouring this wine is like letting a genie out of the bottle: it gets bigger and bigger as the wine's depth and breadth gradually reveal themselves. In the nose, you'll notice berries, rosemary, and cardamon, while the palate fills with bright and creamy flavors of black plum, black olive, truffle, even a hint of chocolate-covered cherry.

The prodigious 2005 Cabernet Sauvignon Estate may be Spottswoode’s strongest effort since their superb 2002 and 2001. A deep ruby/purple color is accompanied by a classic bouquet of violets, graphite, blueberries, and creme de cassis with hints of licorice and cedar. Stunningly pure and elegant as well as substantial and authoritatively flavored, this is a long, rich, concentrated wine with the grace of a ballerina. Give it 2-3 years of bottle age and consume it over the following 20-25+ years.
Score: 96. —Robert Parker, December 2007.

The 2004 Cabernet Sauvignon (only 2,100 cases) exhibits a dense purple color, more obvious tannin, and a more masculine style than the 2003. It’s a bigger wine with additional notes of scorched earth, blueberries, blackberries, and heady cassis. Unlike most 2004 Napa Cabernets, this weighty effort will require some bottle aging. Give it 2-3 years of cellaring and consume it over the following two decades.
Score: 92. —Robert Parker, December 2006.

Bell

Our 2005 vintage is characterized by dark ruby color, firm supple tannins and concentrated flavors. The mild temperatures during the growing season combined with periodic warm spells allowed the grapes to slowly mature, giving long hang time and resulting in rich, flavorful grapes.
