Score 89/100 · Drink 2002-2007, Robert Parker, Jan 2000
The medium to dark ruby-colored 1996 Cabernet Sauvignon has a nose composed of blackberries, mint-covered chocolate, and fresh herbs. Intense, mouth-coating layers of red and black fruits are found in this powerful offering. Its sultry personality leads to a tannic, firm finish. Drink this wine between 2002-2007. Tel: 509-525-1428

Bright deep ruby. Sappy, sweet aromas of crystallized black cherry, cassis, mocha and mint. Dense and firmly built, with sharply delineated cherry and black raspberry flavors framed by strong acidity. A solidly structured, firmly tannic cabernet that should age for many years.
