Reserve is one of the top wines of their Napa Valley red wine
production. This 2014 is a blend of 84% Cabernet Sauvignon, 9% Petit Verdot, 4% Merlot and 3% Malbec aged 20 months in new French oak barrels.
Wine Spectator scored this 93 points saying "Supple, plump and juicy, with mouthwatering plum, cherry, currant and blackberry flavors evenly dispersed, maintaining focus and charm, ending with silky tannins. Cabernet Sauvignon, Petit Verdot, Merlot and Malbec. Drink now through 2032."
