| Rating | RP89 - The Special Selection Cabernet Sauvignon which spends significant time in oak can be one of California's most riveting wines. First made in 1975 there have been some exceptionally concentrated powerful wines that are still young and evolving i.e the 1978 1976 and 1975. The decade of the eighties produced less profound Special Selection Cabernet Sauvignons with the exception of the 1984 and 1985. Since then the wine has moved to less of a blockbuster style with the emphasis on more elegance without sacrificing the wine's richness and intensity. I have not tasted the 1989 Special Selection but both the 1988 and 1987 Special Selection Cabernet Sauvignons are noticeably lighter and less intense than previous vintages. Nevertheless the 1987 is still an excellent wine with its rich oaky cassis and spicy nose creamy-textured medium to full-bodied flavors and moderately long finish. RP |
