This wonderful bottling of Long Depaquit has lime

the 1995 requires an additional 5-6 years of cellaring

but he could not acquire the historic Inglenook Winery until some 20 years later

this is so drinkable and ageworthy as well for those enlightened few who prefer to stash some Zinfandel away in their cellars

The wine reveals deep layers with black cherry

2008 Quilceda Creek "Galitzine Vineyard" Red Mountain Cabernet Sauvignon This wonderful bottling of LongThe 2008 Galitzine Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon contains 1% Merlot. It offers a brooding aromatic array of toasty oak, Asian spices, incense, a hint of sage, violets, and assorted black fruits. More structured than the preceding wines, No doubting its Red Mountain say the Golitzins, it has plenty of ripe tannin more than balanced by loads of succulent fruit, exceptional density, richness and power. Give it 5 6 years and drink it from 2016 to 2033. (JM)
