Wine Enthusiast rating: 96. All of us here at winery appreciate magnificent way in which Meredith Estate virtually blossoms with bottle age. Last year for our post-harvest party, we opened a 10-year vertical of this wine. lineup included inaugural 2000 production through current 2009 vintage. It was rewarding to see singular personality of this vibrant Pinot Noir so consistently reflected over its entire first decade. Even vintages that we originally considered to be more elegant in style -- 2001, 2005 and 2006 -- had expanded in volume and richness. aroma is deeply layered, opening with distinctive white pepper signature of 2009 vintage. This quickly expands into a perfume rich with blueberries, wild roses, plums, blackberries, lavender and violets. Accents of exotic Indian spice, sweet pipe tobacco and vanilla bean heighten experience. On palate, its fine bones support layers of full, generous tannin and acidity. This Pinot, though tightly wound, is poised, just waiting for time to r

Bottle Size: 750 mL Wine Spectator: -- Robert Parker: 98 Wine Enthusiast: -- Allen Meadows' Burghound: -- 2003 Branson Wines Shiraz Coach House RP--98 Robert Parker Tasting Notes: Wine Advocate #161 Oct 2005 Robert Parker 98 Drink: 2007 - 2025 (90) The fabulous, inky/purple-hued 2003 Shiraz Coach House only carries 14.5% alcohol (in the land of 15% full-throttle Shiraz). It offers a huge nose of blackberry and cassis liqueur, plums, figs, barbecue smoke, and lead pencil shavings. A wine of great intensity, enormous concentration, moderately high tannin, and a blockbuster finish, it needs 2-3 more years of bottle age, and it should last for 10-20+ years. This is an impressive successor to Branson Coach House’s equally exciting 2002.

The influence of Antinori is already felt in this beautiful wine. A supple, generous finish rounds things out nicely. The difference between this 2009 and 2008 is night and day. Anticipated maturity: 2012-2019. The changes that have taken place at Stags Leap Winery over the last few years are nothing less than stunning. The Antinori family bought a 15% stake in Stags Leap in 2007 and was appointed technical director as part of the deal. Long time winemaker Renzo Cotarella, who oversees all of the Antinori wines in Italy plus Antica on Atlas Peak, was brought in to consult.

Wine Enthusiast rating: 95. In recent years, Stagecoach Vineyard has become one of most renowned vineyards in Napa Valley. It rises 1, 200 feet above sea level and continues to climb to nearly 1, 850 feet at its highest elevations on southern side of Oakville appellation's Pritchard Hill and Atlas Peak. Blessed with south-facing slopes filled with shallow, volcanic soils, site's rugged terroir is ideal for growing intensely colored cabernet sauvignon. My favorite vintage of decade for Cabernet Sauvignon and Malbec. We were graced with outstanding growing conditions that gave way to a wine with pure, focused flavors black cherry, currant, and tobacco, while a mid palate of spice vanilla and mocha linger in layers, all framed with velvet-like, dusty tannins.

It shows fabulous depth and richness backed up by serious, imposing tannins that suggest it has a long life. Ideally, the 2008 should be purchased by those who can be patient; it is not a wine for those seeking immediate gratification. The blend is 89% Cabernet Sauvignon, 7% Petit Verdot and 4% Malbec. Anticipated maturity: 2018-2038. I tasted a number of fabulous wines from Joseph Phelps this year. The 2009 and 2010 Backus and Insignia are still in barrel, but they are shaping up beautifully.

Chocolatey cassis notes intermixed with incense, licorice, and a hint of black olive are present in this wine. When it hits the palate, it comes across as very Pomerol-like, with lushness, full body, and opulence. The tannins are sweet, the pH high, and the wine gorgeously full, pure, dense, and long. It�s a terrific example of non-interventionalist winemaking that has turned out a beautiful, silky-textured wine that should age effortlessly for 15+ years.
