A barrel sample, the 2016 Cabernet Sauvignon Herb Lamb Vineyard sports a very deep purple-black color and exuberant nose of crushed wild blueberries, red and black cherries and black plums with touches of dried sage, garrigue, tilled soil and chargrill plus a waft of pencil lead. Medium to full-bodied, the palate is vivacious, refreshing and savory, featuring red and black fruits and framed by fine-grained tannins, finishing long and earthy. (LPB) (12/2017)

A huge array of crme de cassis, blueberries, flowers, and spicy, sandalwood-like characteristics emerge from the 2016 Cabernet Sauvignon Herb Lamb, which has more than a passing resemblance to a great vintage of Chteau Margaux. Showing more tobacco and herbal characteristics with time in the glass, this full-bodied, multi-dimensional, seamless 2016 has everything you could want from a Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon. Enjoy it over the coming 20-25+ years. (1/2019)

Time has been kind to the 2016 Cabernet Sauvignon Herb Lamb, a wine that is positively stellar today. Dark and explosive, with tremendous energy, the 2016 has so much to offer. Beams of tannin give the 2016 a backbone of energy and structure that will allow it to develop nicely in bottle for many years to come. Thomas Brown and his team crafted a striking wine that captures the essence of one of the most singular sites in Napa Valley. (AG) (12/2018)
