Robert Parker, The Wine Advocate
Black truffles, asphalt, graphite, blueberries, and creme de cassis aromas soar from the glass of the 2004 Cabernet Sauvignon Tychson Hill Vineyard (168 cases). A wine of extraordinary nobility, it possesses a steely, well-delineated mouthfeel, full body, and enormous wealth of richness and length. This profound Cabernet Sauvignon is a candidate for wine of the vintage.Robert Parker, The Wine Advocate
The 2004 Cabernet Sauvignon Tychson Hill Vineyard is more evolved and upfront than its 2002 and 2003 counterparts. Dense purple to the rim, with a big, sweet nose of lead pencil shavings, melted licorice, smoky embers, creme de cassis, plums, and flowers, a sweet attack, a broad, savory mid-palate, a full-bodied opulent finish, and a lush, elegant, accessible style, this beauty can be drunk upon release, and over the following 15+ years.Wine Spectator
Massive, yet smooth and polished, with a subdued offering of ripe plum, floral and black cherry fruit that slowly builds in intensity and depth. Gains momentum on the finish, where the tannins are ripe and the flavors are tapered. Best from 2009 through 2020. 168 cases made.Additional Information

CaliforniaSince the famous Judgement of Paris in 1976 California wines have unquestionably ranked among the best in the world. From the Anderson Valley in the North through Temecula Valley in the South, California vineyards grow dozens of wine grape varietals that produce wines of many different styles. The California wine industry has steadily gained ground since the 1960s (the industry took a major hit following Prohibition), but its roots date back over 200 years. Major grape varietals include Cabernet Sauvignon, Chardonnay, Zinfandel, Pinot Noir, Syrah and Sauvignon Blanc.View all our items from California
