About The Producer
Reviews
James Suckling
This is really great. Classic Napa cabernet with blackberries, currants, redwood, mushrooms and wet earth. Real mountain cabernet. Full-bodied, tight and framed. A beauty. Needs two or three years to open. Tiny production.
Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
The 2016 Cabernet Sauvignon Yates Vineyard is 100% Cabernet Sauvignon. Deep garnet-purple in color, it offers up intense scents of crushed black currants, ripe black plums and boysenberries with touches of cigar box, camphor, yeast extract, tapenade and charcuterie. Medium to full-bodied, the palate is an exercise in poise, with beautifully balanced, plush tannins and seamless freshness supporting the intense fruit, finishing long and layered. 250 cases were made.
Wine Spectator
Dark and winey, with lots of fig, blackberry and plum fruit that is well-steeped with licorice root, sage and warm earth notes. The fruit keeps pace on the grippy, tannin-driven finish. On the rugged and extracted side, so some patience, or a love of the style, is required. Best from 2023 through 2036. 250 cases made.
