Score 97/100 · Drink 2012-2030, Robert Parker, Dec 2009
The magnificent 2006 Cabernet Sauvignon The Core (100% Cabernet Sauvignon) is a selection of the estate’s finest barrels that is aged 24 months in 100% new French oak. Its inky/ruby/purple color is followed by dense blackberry and cassis flavors intermixed with hints of espresso roast, subtle oak, and lead pencil shavings. Layered, full-bodied, and elegant, it is one of the truly magnificent wines produced in 2006. Drink this classic Napa Cabernet Sauvignon between 2012 and 2030+. Tel.
