Providence played a strong role in the birth of Alexandria Nicole Cellars (named after Ali) and its estate vineyard. Paying tribute to that force--so central to their dream come true--was a natural in the naming of Destiny Ridge Vineyard.
Carefully selected, blended, and barrel aged for 20 months this Estate Cabernet Sauvignon is loaded with dark fruit, ripe berry flavors, hints of rosemary, vanilla, spice, cigar box, and toasty oak nuances. Its bold structure is balanced throughout with refined drying tannins that are backed by well-integrated oak, pure complexity, and a lengthy finish. It is 100% Destiny Ridge Vineyard, 78% Cabernet Sauvignon, 16% Cabernet Franc, and 6% Petit Verdot. Horse Heaven Hills AVA

"In honor of his departed wife, Camarda has changed the label of the floral, dark berry-scented 2003 Sorella; it is now adorned with a painting of Annie. An assemblage of 50% Cabernet Sauvignon, 23% Merlot, 17% Cabernet Franc, and 10% Petit Verdot, it is a structured, medium-bodied wine with outstanding concentration, freshness, focus, and length. Notes of toasty oak intermingled with red cherries, blackberries, elderberries, cassis, and currants are found in its expressive flavor profile. Robert Parker Score: 95 "Impressive for its purity of flavors and generosity. This gorgeous red fills the mouth with rich black cherry, blackberry and hints of cedar and sweet spices, waxing and persisting on an expressive finish that goes on and on. Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, Merlot and Petit Verdot. Best from 2009 through 2017. 805 cases made." –HS

The vineyard is approximately 25 acres with soils that are very similar to those in the Whitehall Lane Winery Estate Vineyard. It has produced outstanding grapes since the early 1920's when Dominic Bommarito purchased the Rutherford property to plant a vineyard and build a summer home.
Dominic Bommarito was a founding member of the Napa Valley Co-Op and farmed his vineyard until his death in 1963. His wife, Carmen Bommarito, tended to the vineyard until her death in December, 1994. Working by her side was son Salvatore "Toots" Bommarito. Toots spent his entire life on the property, working in the vineyard and tending to the properties. He retired in 1994.
Whitehall Lane Winery continues to call the property the Bommarito Vineyard, recognizing the wonderful history of the Napa Valley, its pioneers and its characters.

The present owners Craig and Mignonne Willson purchased the property in 1985 and immediately established a long term restoration and development plan that started in 1987 and was completed in 1995, with the wineries first vintage completed in 1998.
Following Bremerton's mission statement of producing only premium quality wine, the winemaking team headed by family winemaker Rebecca Willson has taken the quality of the wines to new standards.
The family name Tamblyn is in recognition of winemaker Rebecca Willson’s grandmother’s ancestors who migrated to Australia from Cornwall, England. The concept behind the "Tamblyn" blend was developed when Bremerton decided they wanted to craft a wine that people were able to appreciate that night or cellar for a few years. They have blended a complex flavored wine by utilizing the characters of each of the varieties, at the same time achieving a soft well rounded approachable palate structure.

Winemaker Chuck Wagner's Notes:
"The 2003 harvest was long, stretching into November after some early blocks were picked following heat spikes in September. We harvested each small vineyard block as we judged its fruit to be fully mature. The days of judging grapes’ ripeness by Brix levels alone are long over. To me, true ripeness is determined when the vines show signs of stress, the grapes’ seeds are dark and slightly crunchy, about ten percent of the berries show a slight orange-peel pattern, the skin tannins are sweet, and the juice has a minimal herbaceous quality.
Although yields were low this year, the wines that made the grade were worthy of our patience: full-bodied, dark in color, ripe, and concentrated, with sweet tannins."
Robert Parker: "The 2003 Cabernet Sauvignon Special Selection offers up scents of licorice, black currants, spice box, and a hint of flowers. This deep, full-bodied, chunky 2003 should last for 13-15 years." - 94 points

 for wine in the Bordeaux wine region of southwestern France, on the Left Bank of the Gironde estuary. Covering a large part of the viticultural strip of land along the Médoc peninsula, the zone covers approximately 37 miles (60 kilometres).
A response to the hardship of the years following the Great War, the first ever classification of the Cru Bourgeois properties of the Médoc was drawn up by the Bordeaux Chamber of Commerce and Chamber of Agriculture in 1932. As the end of the 20th Century neared, and the popularity and reputation of a number of the Cru Bourgeois properties grew, it became apparent that a more regulated classification was required.
In 2003 of 490 chateaux that submitted to the new classification, only 247 were included, a significant contraction of the original listing made in 1932. They were divided into three tiers, led by the Cru Bourgeois Exceptionnel (9 properties), followed by Cru Bourgeois Supérieur (87 properties) and then the standard Cru Bourgeois estates (151 properties). Admirably, there was a plan to review the ranking every 12 years.
It was not until early 2007 that the Cru Bourgeois applecart was truly upset with a collection of far too many complaints from producers against the classification system. The latest version of classification should be rolled out by 2009.

 that may be used throughout the region. These are Bordeaux AOC, Bordeaux Supérieur, Bordeaux Clairet, Bordeaux Rosé, Bordeaux Sec and Bordeaux Moelleux. They primarily represent the basic level of red, rosé and white wines of the region, and represent the largest production volume among the AOC wines of Bordeaux. The production area allowed to use these AOC covers the entire region, including those areas which also have access to more geographically delimited and prestigious AOCs.
These AOCs are often called generic because they do not indicate a specific subregion or commune within Bordeaux as the source of the wine. Large parts of the Bordeaux region can only use the generic appellations. Most Bordeaux AOC is produced within the Entre-Deux-Mers subregion.
Like all other AOCs in Bordeaux, even the simplest generic Bordeaux AOC wines are allowed to display the text Grand Vin de Bordeaux - Great wine of Bordeaux.
Located near the Garonne, the Château Laronde Desormes was purchased in 1992 by the family to Tessandier family Tari, owner of Château Giscours.

The wine is predominantly Cabernet Sauvignon, followed by Merlot, Cabernet-Franc, Malbec and Petit Verdot.

In his late 20s he began hanging around a local wine store and talking with its knowledgeable owner, who gave Cliff his first taste of good Bordeaux, a Ducru Beaucaillou. "I remember thinking, This is pretty good wine," he says in typically understated fashion.
Owner Cliff Lede, viticulturalist David Abreu, Winemaker Michelle Edwards, and consultant Michel Rolland have come together to form an unrivalled team.
The valley floor vineyard that encircles the winery is known as the Twin Peaks Ranch. More varied in soil type than the hillside property, they farm small bespoke blocks comprised of a selection of root stocks, clonal selections and varietals. That property forms the backbone of the Cliff Lede Cabernet program.

This is winemaker Celia Masyczek’s first harvest-to-bottle vintage for Cornerstone Cellars, an Estate Winery. Her tasting notes describe this Cabernet as "Sweet black cherry and wild black raspberry, hints of roasted sage and cedar dust. Sweet, strong oak, vanilla, caramel. Blackberry tea. Teak. Rich, soft, full-bodied. Forward fruit inspiration lasts through the palate. Wine finishes with fruit sweetness."
Only 775 cases were bottled and it is the only Cornerstone wine produced in 2001. It is 100% Cabernet Sauvignon from the Cornerstone Vineyard at the end of Liparita Road on Howell Mountain.

2007 was the Testa Family's 95th Harvest. The fourth generation is starting to care for the vines under Jim Testa's supervision. This is a great tribute to a family and a great honor for a winemaker to work with such grapes and a family with such lineage. Their Cabernet vineyard was 8 years old in 2005. The vineyard is 6 acres, 1700 feet in elevation, red soil and dry farmed.
The 2005 Testa Cab is made from very small berries and exhibits silky skin tannins that carry it's remarkable Cabernet Sauvignon fruit. A dense, dark wine that is both brooding and appealing. Tony feels this wine has excellent cellaring potential and can be consumed now through 2020.

"Dominus is a large vineyard, and they have the ability to make a strict selection. The 2002 Dominus gets my nod as the greatest example of this cuvee since the 1991 and 1994. There are 4,500 cases of this 85% Cabernet Sauvignon, 8% Cabernet Franc, 4% Petit Verdot, and 3% Merlot blend fashioned from minuscule yields ranging from 1.8 to 2.8 tons of fruit per acre. Christian Moueix told me that the phenolic material was higher analytically in 2002, as were the acids, which surprised everyone. The deep, saturated purple-colored 2002 boasts an extraordinary perfume of roasted coffee intermixed with black currants, cherries, cocoa, cedar, cigar smoke, and new saddle leather. A classic, full-bodied palate possesses great structure, tremendous depth, loads of tannin, and a multilayered, concentrated yet elegant finish. It is difficult to predict when this beauty will plateau in terms of maturity. My best guess is it needs 3-5 years of bottle age, and should last for 25 years. One of the interesting things at Dominus is that when I do my tastings they open and decant the same wines the day before, and the wines with extended aeration always reveal more complexity and sweeter tannin than the just opened bottles, a characteristic purchasers should take into consideration. Decanting several hours in advance is recommended. Kudos to the brilliant Christian Moueix for these achievements ... the most distinctive and individualist Cabernet Sauvignon-based wines of Napa Valley."&id=){kind=link}

![Details](kiosk.asp?picturename=100226.jpg&extdesc=Selene "Chesler" Napa Red &subdesc=2004®ion=Napa Valley, U.S.&name=Cabernet Franc&price=54.99¬es=The beautiful Selene wines are made by renowned winemaker Mia Klein. The Selene name comes from Greek mythology. There are three goddesses associated with the moon in this mythology; Artemis, the maiden goddess of the waxing moon, Selene, the mother goddess of the full moon, and Hecate, the wise crone goddess of the waning moon. Also, as Mia's label depicts, there are few sights more beautiful in Napa Valley than the moonrise over hillside vineyards.
The Cabernet Franc based Bordeaux blend that carries a new label under Selene is called ‘Chesler’. Chesler is a tribute to my mother, Eileen Chesler, and sports a picture of her waterskiing in the late 1940’s. The Cabernet Franc for the Chesler comes from Frediani Vineyard in Calistoga.

![Details](kiosk.asp?picturename=Llabelshots006.jpg&extdesc=Silver Oak Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon&subdesc=2003®ion=Napa, U.S.&name=Cabernet Sauvignon&price=109.99¬es=The 2002 Napa Valley Cabernet has been much anticipated, another exciting release from Silver Oak Cellars. This is a profound and powerful Cabernet with dark, ruby-red color and aromas of crème de cassis, chocolate, vanilla, and roasted coffee. On the palate, it is rich and shows great depth with a core of ripe berry fruit, notes of dark chocolate, nutmeg, toasty American oak, chewy tannins and a long focused finish. This is a bottle that is sure to benefit from aging until 2027 according to winemaker, Daniel Baron.
Robert Parker calls the new Silver Oak Cabernet a sexy, "hedonistic fleshpot of a wine" - 91 Points.

![Details](kiosk.asp?picturename=130102.jpg&extdesc=Spottswood Cabernet&subdesc=2006®ion=Napa, U.S.&name=Cabernet Sauvignon&price=149.99¬es="The elegance, purity, complexity, and striking beauty of the 2002 Cabernet Sauvignon Estate is something to behold. This is a prodigious example of marrying the power and richness of Napa Cabernet with a sense of restraint, elegance, but tremendous, authoritative flavor intensity. As I said last year, if Chateau Margaux were making wine in Napa, this might be what it would taste like. An extraordinary nose of black currants, chocolate, sweet licorice, and a hint of toast jumps from the glass of this wine, which exhibits superb ripeness, an incredibly well-delineated, full-bodied, opulent palate, and good, uplifting acidity and freshness. This is a stunning tour de force in winemaking and ranks as the finest Spottswoode Cabernet Sauvignon I have ever tasted. It should drink well for 15-20 years." RP 97/100
