89 Points | Connoisseurs' Guide to California Wine

($45) Medium ruby-red. Currant, tobacco and menthol on the nose: classic Oakville cabernet.

I find this fresher and less extreme than the Stag's Leap bottling.

Moving slightly south, Cabernet Sauvignon meets Merlot in roughly equal proportions in the red wines of Graves. In both of these Bordeaux regions, the top bottles...
