2002 OPTIMA Alexander Valley CABERNET SAUVIGNON (94% Cabernet Sauvignon, 3% Cabernet Franc, 3% Syrah) The 2002 Optima Alexander Valley Cabernet Sauvignon is characterized by a wonderful forward, rich nose with generous bright fruit and deep, concentrated, multi-layered aromas of black cherry and blueberry, with hints of currant and cocoa powder. Elements of sweet oak and vanilla carefully comple- ment the ripe fruit flavors and the round, rich middle. Supple, yet with a weighty, very fruity mouth-feel and a moderately tannic finish. Despite its pleasant immediate appeal, 3 to 5 years of cellaring will add roundness and complexity, and should age well for 8 years! * Rated 91 - The Wine Enthusiast Magazine!

2004 HOLLOWAY MOUNTAIN CUVEE CABERNET "Many of you picked up this wine when it was released last year. From your feedback it appears you enjoyed this Cabernet as much as we did. If you have any left, I would recommend opening a bottle tonight and trying it so you can see how luscious this wine has become and take advantage of this incredible offer, 50% SAVINGS!" Bob 2004 HOLLOWAY Mountain Cuvee Red Hills Cabernet Sauvignon I retried the wine yesterday, and it has opened up nicely exhibiting an extremely dark ruby color, gorgeous aromatics enhanced by the 2% Cabernet Franc leading with aromas of black currant, violets, minerals, and mocha. On the palate the wine has a serious structure and luscious mouth-feel with dusty, fine-grained tannins that are reminiscent of Cabernets from the Rutherford region in Napa Valley, and lead to a long, extended finish. 200 cases produced.
