Santé October 2010 Cabernet Sauvignon Reserva 2008 - Sante ------------------------------------------ Aromas and flavors of currant, black cherry, blackberry, pepper, and spice; medium to full bodied with a good mouth-feel, approachable tannins, and good depth and structure. ------------------------------------------ Massachusetts Beverage Business August 2010 Cabernet Sauvignon Reserva 2008 - Massachusetts' Beverage Business ------------------------------------------ Eight months in oak, all new. Fuller, more complex, and longer... Very pleasant drinking. Still retains some tannin. ------------------------------------------ Wine Enthusiast July 2010 87 Points Cabernet Sauvignon Reserva 2008 - 87 Points & Best Buy, Wine Enthusiast ------------------------------------------ Sweet, a bit candied and creamy on the nose, with marshmallow and other oak-driven aromas. The palate has a common, regular, comfortable feel as well as vanilla and boysenberry flavors. Dark and savory late; well made in the "value" class. ------------------------------------------ Wine Spectator April 30, 2010 87 Points Cabernet Sauvignon Reserva - 87 Points, Wine Spectator ------------------------------------------ Forward, with a mix of currant, fig and sage notes backed by a note of graphite on the...finish. ------------------------------------------ Restaurant Wine January/February 2009 4 Stars - Excellent Cabernet Sauvignon Reserva 2007 - 4 Stars, Restaurant Wine ------------------------------------------ Amazing value!

Shows dashes of vanilla and loam on the finish. ------------------------------------------ Santé ------------------------------------------ Sour cherry and toasted grain jump out of the glass with a briny caraway spice on the palate. A short finish of pleasant but gripping tannins and licorice hints. Seared salmon with rye crust; roast pork. ------------------------------------------ Restaurant Wine November 2007 5 Stars - Exceptional ------------------------------------------ Wonderful quality and value!
