the Lees: Bargains in Oakville
In the not-too-distant past, those who produce Napa Valley cabernet
sauvignon came under fire for skyrocketing prices. Detert 2003 Cabernet
Franc (45): Softer and less tannic than cabernet sauvignon, this juicy,
slightly stemmy cabernet franc from winemaker Tom Garrett has a peppery
nose and is a mouthful of ripe black fruit.

Hogue
Cellars Genesis Cabernet Sauvignon 2002 - A Strange Brew
As the story goes, the person opened their bottle of Hogue Cellars
Genesis Cabernet Sauvignon 2002 to discover a high amount of sediment
inside. Traditionally, Hogue Cellars Genesis Cabernet Sauvignon 2002 is
described as having a warm raspberry and cherry fruit core with
highlights of black olive, nutmeg, tobacco, vanilla, and coffee bean.
Pairing
wine and chocolate
It can be an accidental pleasure: After dinner you have a half glass of
great cabernet sauvignon left, so ripe and rich you can't give it up.
Marsala, port and dark muscats work, but you can experiment with dry
reds, especially cabernet sauvignon and zinfandel.

I followed the sommeliers recommendation for a Sorrenberg sauvignon
blanc (A$60) that was well matched with the seafood courses, stepping
up to a Giaconda cabernet sauvignon (A$120) for the meat courses.

Cabernet Sauvignon that merits some thought and appreciation regarding
Chile’s potential if they manage to start emphasizing quality over
quantity.

The Scherrer family makes a tiny amount (about 400 cases) of old-school
Alexander Valley benchland Cabernet Sauvignon with enormous age
potential. The Guilliams farm seven acres of Cabernet Sauvignon,
Merlot, and Cabernet Franc on Spring Mountain about 1,000 feet above

I opened two of my cellar wines over the weekend; a 1989 Girard Napa
Valley Cabernet Sauvignon and a 1980 Fisher Sonoma Cabernet Sauvignon -
each were13% or less. We certainly dont know the answer, but the
quality that these two bottles showed should make a lot of people
insecure about extended aging of todays California (and others)
Cabernet Sauvignon.

I am thinking that was for the 2003 Klipsun Merlot and the 2003 Pepper
Bridge Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon. The students were very fortunate to
be able to produce a Cabernet Sauvignon from the famous Pepper Bridge
Vineyard fruit.

Frederick is a Cabernet Sauvignon blend (75% Cabernet Sauvignon, 19%
Merlot, 5% Cabernet Franc, 1% Petit Verdot) and the name stems from
Frederick Corkrum who farmed the five generation wheat land that is now
known as the Spring Valley Vineyard.
