100 Points from Robert Parker
Posted: November 2, 2013
What a thrill to receive a perfect 100 points from the Wine Advocate’s Robert Parker for our 2010 Fortuna Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon. It’s a true pleasure. Full reviews are in the latest issue of the Wine Advocate, released on November 1, 2013. Here’s what Mr. Parker had to say:
2010 cabernet sauvignon, fortuna vineyard – 100 points
“The 2010 Cabernet Sauvignon Fortuna Vineyard is perfection! This extraordinary wine offers up notes of creme de cassis, graphite, truffles, blueberries and blackberries as well as a colossal mouth feel with no sense of heaviness, layer upon layer of fruit and glycerin, astonishing purity and a finish that is at least 50 seconds. A magnificent effort that should turn out to be one of the great modern classics of Napa Valley, it should age effortlessly for two to three decades.”
– Robert Parker
We have a very small quantity of this wine, available in a three bottle set of our single vineyard wines, to our Winemaker’s Society members.
