2004  

"The 2004 Cabernet Sauvignon from Stewart, which I rated last year, is showing even better this year. This deep, dense purple-colored wine exhibits a nose of coffee, blackberries, and sweet currants in an opulent, sexy style with oodles of hedonistic fruit, some spicy oak in the background, and a finish that tastes like cassis infused with melted black chocolate. This high-class operation boasts Paul Hobbs as its consulting winemaker. Made from 100% Cabernet Sauvignon, primarily from the Stagecoach and Beckstoffer vineyards. " - 93pts WA

1970  Saint-Julien

2021  

Organically farmed, 50% Cabernet Sauvignon, 50% Syrah, 3,750 cases ---- "On the eye, the colour is intense, showing lovely deep carmine red with purple hints. On the nose, it is powerful and beautifully elegant, marked by very ripe red and black fruits, against a background of white pepper and liquorice spice, very characteristic of Trévallon. The palate is smooth and ends on a long, lovely finish showing very ripe and refined tannins of very high quality. The balance of freshness, tannins and richness suggests this great wine will keep for at least twenty years." - Domaine de Trevallon

2005  Heidi Barrett

"Proprietor John Schwartz believes California is capable of making Merlots that can stand toe to toe with the best of France, so he is setting out to prove that point with the help of winemaker Heidi Barrett. Amuse Bouche is the main label. Vin Perdu is the second wine of Amuse Bouche, but the blend varies considerably from year to year, which naturally results in wines that are quite different from each other across several vintages." - Antonio Galloni

2010  

"The 2010 Vin Perdu is gorgeous. Plums, black currants, grilled herbs, tar and licorice are some of the many notes that burst from the glass in this full-bodied, intense wine. A dark, rich, voluptuous red, the 2010 Vin Perdu shows Heidi Barrett at her best. Hints of menthol, tar, licorice and pencil shavings are layered into the powerful, inviting finish. The 2010 is loaded with serious depth and power. In 2010 the blend is 75% Cabernet Sauvignon, 18% Syrah, 2% Petit Verdot, 2% Petit Sirah, 2% Cabernet Franc and 1% Merlot." - 94pts Vinous

2004  Sori Bricco Vyd Diamond Mountain District

"Von Strasser’s 2004 Proprietary Red from the Sori Bricco Vineyard consists of 40% Cabernet Sauvignon, 39% Merlot and 21% Cabernet Franc, all aged in 100% French oak. It exhibits a dense ruby/purple color, a wonderful supple character, lots of cedary, earthy, leathery and cassis notes, and medium to full body." - 91 pts Robert Parker (Tasted 4/2014)
