"The Alexander Valley cuvee is 100% Cabernet Sauvignon aged in new oak. The 2002 Cabernet Sauvignon Alexander Valley offers abundant quantities of spice, vanillin, cedar, herbs, and smoke, soft, round, creamy-textured flavors, good black cherry and currant notes, and a spicy, medium-bodied, easy-going personality. Enjoy it over the next 7-10 years. (Release date 8/06)" - Rated 90, Robert Parker
"Supple, with creamy vanilla and mocha oak providing a nice flavor dimension, joining dried currant, anise and sage flavors. Drink now through 2010. 70,000 cases made. –JL" - Rated 86, Wine Spectator
