"More backward than the Shiraz Special Select, but equally superb is the Pauillac-like, dense ruby/purple-tinged 2002 Cabernet Sauvignon Reserve. Classic aromas of creme de cassis, charcoal, coffee, spice box, and toasty oak emerge from this tannic, backward, rich, layered, substantially flavored and endowed Cabernet Sauvignon. Give it 1-3 years of bottle age and drink it over the following 12-15 years. Score - 93. (Robert Parker Jr., www.erobertparker.com, Oct. 2005)
