| Robert Parker Rating | 97 RP - Although the 2001 Cabernet Sauvignon Herb Lamb Vineyard is the most developed, it remains a youthful adolescent with exceptional intensity. Notes of tapenade, bay leaf, creme de cassis, charcoal and hints of truffles as well as new saddle leather emerge from this opaque purple-hued 2001. The gorgeous perfume is followed by rich, concentrated, full-bodied flavors, sweet tannin and beautiful intensity, purity and balance. It can be drunk now (although 4-5 more years of cellaring will prove beneficial) and over the next 25 years. |

| Antonio Galloni Rating | 95+ AG - Very dark ruby, not quite as bright as the Tychson Hill. Wilder aromas of black raspberry, black cherry, roasted game and dark chocolate. Sweet, lush and seamless but with solid underlying spine. Extremely backward wine but harmonious from the outset. All these 2001s are carrying about 15% alcohol, but have more than enough buffering extract. This remained on its skins for 54 days. Aubert and Colgin seem to marginally prefer the Tychson cuvee, but I love the balance of this one today. |

| Wine Spectator Rating | Beautifully defined ripe currant and black cherry fruit glides smoothly across the palate on a seamless, elegant, polished texture. Finishes with a burst of ripe fruit that stays in the forefront despite some pretty mocha-vanilla bean toasted oak. Fine-grained tannins preserve the ripe fruit flavors while giving it structure. |
