2010 Barrett & Barrett Cabernet Sauvignon Calistoga Napa Valley

(97 Points)  -----------  (Vinous)

The 2010 Cabernet Sauvignon is drop-dead gorgeous, just as it was last year. A dark, sumptuous beauty, the 2010 bursts from the glass with super-ripe, racy fruit, tar, new leather and a melange of exotic spices. Firm tannins support a gorgeous finish in a structured, powerful Cabernet Sauvignon endowed with tons of power and pure elegance. The 2010 was made from two vineyards in Calistoga, with a dollop of Cabernet Franc from a site in Oakville. (AG)   Review Date: 11/2013
