  Burnt, smoky char displays prominently on the nose of this wine, which is mouth-puckering with blackberry, current and pencil shaving flavors and finishes on bay leaf and sage.

• 201285 pts

  This is a middle-of-the-road, appropriately priced wine, which employs other Bordeaux varieties in the blend. Eucalyptus and bay leaf rise immediately on the nose, before a soft, slightly undeveloped body reveals mocha, red currant and soy.

• 201188 pts

  Thick and lush in red and black cherry, this wine has voluptuous tannins around a medium to full body. Structured and well balanced, it finishes in a tasty cloud of dust.

• 201087 pts

  Highlighted in Rainier cherry and cassis fruit, with a core of high acidity, this is a drinkable, affordable red wine worth looking for.

  Wellington held back this Cab for all these years, with good results. The cherry and blackberry flavors are just beginning to develop secondary complexities. The mouthfeel is softly tannic and light. It would be a fine wine for drinking with elegant beef dishes.

  A little on the sweet-tasting side, this Cabernet Sauvignon abounds with flavors of blackberry and cherry pie filling, which give it a direct, candied taste. The tannins and acids are superior, and the wine should benefit from 3–4 years in a cellar.

  A good buy in a Cabernet that's dry and elegant enough to pair with a great steak, chop or roast. It has classic blackberry, black currant, herb and cedar flavors, and is soft enough to drink now.

  Four-plus years haven't helped to soften or sweeten this tough, herbal Cab. It's bone dry and lean, even austere in flavor, leaving the alcohol and powerful tannins to dominate.
