Cabernet Sauvignon

96 Robert Parker

This 100% Cabernet Sauvignon is from the beautiful Bryant Family Vineyard overlooking Lake Hennessey. Made following a period of turmoil (changing winemakers, lawsuits, etc.) at this estate, the dense purple-colored 2003 Cabernet Sauvignon possesses a classic nose of spring flowers, blueberry liqueur and creme de cassis, 15.2% natural alcohol, and a complex, sweet, rich, full-bodied mouthfeel. There are many great vineyard sites in this area, and Bryant is exploiting theirs to the maximum. Drinkable now, this beauty should keep for 10-15 more years. - Robert M. Parker, Jr.

93 Vinous

Dark red-ruby. More evolved on the nose than the 2002, conveying a roasted-fruit character to the aromas of raspberry compote and dark chocolate. Distinctly liqueur-like on the palate, like a coulis of fruits. Obviously superripe and jammy--and shows the effect of the hot, dry period in September--but only 15.2% alcohol. In a very sweet style that some purists will consider over the top but has the spine of tannins to maintain its shape. This wine, too, will probably gain in clarity and complexity with another few years of cellaring.Stephen Tanzer1st May 2017

A Pure Bred Napa Cabernet Sauvignon

Don Bryant bought the Pritchard Hill parcel in the mid-1980s, hired David Abreu to develop the vineyard and Helen Turley to make the wines. Don Bryant had the foresight, intuition, and knack for successful ventures. Since Don passed away, his wife Bettina has taken over operations. A 13-acre vineyard is planted on Pritchard Hill in Napa, predominantly Cabernet Sauvignon, but the team also cultivate a little Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot.

The estate producer three wines - an estate Cabernet Sauvignon and two Bordeaux blends produced using some fruit from David Abreu's Madrona, Thorevilos and Las Posadas vineyards.
