Diamond Creek, Red Rock Terrace, Cabernet Sauvignon--Vintage 1978
Napa Valley
Levels: into neck
Very opaque in color, with an extraordinary bouquet of super-sweet, jammy fruit, cedar, herbs, wood, and spices, this highly extracted, full-bodied wine still displays considerable tannic clout, as well as plenty of alcohol and concentration in the long finish. Like other wines from Diamond Creek, it has thrown a lot of sediment, so decanting is suggested. Robert Parker, Wine Advocate #80 (Apr 1992)
