"The 2005 Cabernet Sauvignon St. Eden is from an 11-acre vineyard on the foothills north of the Oakville crossroad that has the classic red, rocky soil of this area, essentially in the foothills of the Vaca Mountains that define the eastern edges of Napa Valley. This wine, which shows notes of new saddle leather, Christmas fruitcake and spice, is broad and savory, with a classic full-bodied mouthfeel, stunning purity and sensational flavors of wild forest mixed with blackberry and cassis fruit. This blend can be drunk now, or cellared for at least another two decades." - 97 Pts. - Robert Parker

Claire U. ★★★★★

The nose jumps out with that classic rocky soil minerality—it’s like smelling the Napa foothills. On the palate, it’s still surprisingly vibrant for a 2005, with soft tannins and a long, elegant finish.

Joseph Z. ★★★★★

Twenty years in and this still tastes like it was made yesterday—the deep red fruit and that classic Oakville foothill structure are perfectly intact. I’ve decanted it for an hour and the finish just keeps unfolding, a real treat for a special occasion.

Stella O. ★★★★★

The rocky soil really comes through in the finish, giving it a distinct mineral edge that sets it apart from other Napa cabs I've tried. Opened beautifully after about an hour in the decanter.
