The limited production 2012 Cabernet Sauvignon Four Flags is an off-the-hook effort. Decadent, layered, unctuous and rich, with classic Cabernet notes of blackcurrants, chocolate, lead pencil, crushed rock and graphite, this awesome 2012 hits the palate with full-bodied richness, no hard edges, a stacked, rich, concentrated mid-palate, and loads of sweet tannin that are almost completely hidden under all of the wine's fruit and texture. Given the wealth of material here, it's already hard to resist, but don't let that fool you, this has the balance, concentration and structure to keep for 2-3 decades. It's a sensational Cabernet from this team that should not be missed. - Jeb Dunnuck

Classic cabernet scents lead in this Red Mountain red—violets, sage, a whiff of cedar—all of it so beguiling you’ll just want to hover over the glass for several minutes. But the flavors are just as impressive, not for their power and their weight, but for their movement as well. The wine feels monumental, and yet it has the lift and kinetic energy to make it a thrill to taste. Decant it and serve with leg of lamb. (1,450 cases)

A blend of top vineyards Ciel du Cheval (28%), Upchurch (26%), Grand Ciel (25%) and Klipsun, this 100% varietal wine is aromatically reserved with notes of café au lait, black currant, dusty chocolate and fresh herbs. Fruit flavors are concentrated and rich with firm tannins that will benefit from additional time in the bottle. Best after 2017.
