2008 Hundred Acre, The Ark Vineyard, Napa Valley 1x750ml

Robert Parker 94

The 2008 Cabernet Sauvignon Ark Vineyard has a medium garnet color and nose of cherry cordial, cassis and blueberry compote with fragrant earth, candied violets and crushed rocks nuances. The palate is full-bodied, rich, elegant and firm with a lovely graininess and bold freshness, finishing very long and earthy. [Lisa Perrotti-Brown, 04/12/2018]

Vinous 94

The 2008 Cabernet Sauvignon Ark Vineyard, from a vineyard at the base of Howell Mountain, is deep, sensual and powerful. It shows terrific richness in its dark cherries, plums, mocha, licorice and tobacco. This is a totally gorgeous wine loaded with character. [Antonio Galloni, 12/01/2011]
