2004 Du Brul Vineyard Reserve: Wine Advocate

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate

Thick and dense on the palate, with gobs of flavor, this full bodied effort demands 6-8 years of cellaring and should drink well through 2040.

2006 Cabernet Sauvignon: Wine Enthusiast

This stylish Cab is loaded with black olive and black fruits, all with a leafy edge. Still young tannic and a bit hard, it has good clean, varietal character and a good length.

2006 DuBrul Vineyard Reserve: Wine & Spirits

High in extract, with scents of mocha, roasted plum and meat, this rich blend of cabernet sauvignon, merlot and franc wraps around your nose like a blanket. But for all its intensity, the wine has tremendous drive on the palate.
