2004 Vineyard 29 "Estate" Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon

SKU #1292764 98 points Wine Advocate

Outer quote mark This great vineyard situated on the hillsides north of St. Helena has produced a blend of 93% Cabernet Sauvignon and 7% Cabernet Franc. A sensational offering from proprietors Chuck and Anne McMinn, it offers up beautiful floral, blueberry, black currant, blackberry, licorice and incense aromas. Not a hard edge is to be found in this full-bodied, multidimensional, complex, world-class Cabernet Sauvignon. With sweet tannin as well as a skyscraper-like texture, it is performing even better than it did early in life. One of the superstars of the vintage ... (RP) Inner quote mark (4/2014)

93 points Vinous

Outer quote mark Good dark red. Expressive, nuanced, rather wild aromas and flavors of black raspberry, meat, leather, dried peppery herbs, black olive, truffle and mocha. Wonderfully sweet, dense and concentrated but not heavy; in a somewhat more powerful style than the '03 but with surprising aromatic lift, perhaps due to the inclusion of some Cabernet Franc for the first time. The very long, palate-staining finish features strong tannins that could still use a bit more time to resolve. (ST) Inner quote mark (4/2018)
