William Hill Cabernet Sauvignon Reserve 2004
The 2002 harvest was all about patience. The weather in key wine regions was unusually cool early in the growing season, while summer and fall saw extended heat spells.

Louis Martini Cabernet Sauvignon Napa Valley 2005
The outstanding 2005 Cabernet Sauvignon Napa is also a terrific buy. A beautiful integration of sweet tannin and soft acids gives this wine a plush, succulent mouthfeel.

Now owned by the Gallo family, but still run by Michael Martini, the quality of these wines merits serious attention. - Rated 89, Robert Parker
