Noteringar:
2009-02-09 09:48 WS: Not up to its usual standards. Of three bottles only one was drinkable though drying out, with simple black cherry and blackberry flavors that were focused and complex, though lacking depth and richness.--'97 California Cabernet retrospective. Drink now. –JL
2009-02-09 09:48 WA: As for the 1997 Cabernet Sauvignon Reserve, this wine seems more subdued than it did last year and might be going through a relatively closed stage. As it sat in the glass, it took on an almost Ducru-Beaucaillou or Leoville-Las Cases St.-Julien-like character, with notes of minerals, cedar wood, black currants, tobacco, and spice. This is a rich, dark ruby/purple-colored wine with very complex aromatics, medium to full body, tight structure and plenty of tannin in the finish. There are 20,000 cases. Anticipated maturity: 2005-2025. Tel. (707) 226-1395 and (800) MONDAVI; fax (707) 251-4386.
2009-02-09 09:48 IWC: By Stephen Tanzer Stephen Tanzer's International Wine Cellar, May/June 00 Very good deep ruby-red. Superripe aromas of crystallized red berries, cassis, graphite and grilled nuts. Lush, sweet and minerally; already displays compelling inner-mouth complexity and superb delineation. Youthful fruit flavors show less of the meaty quality that characterized some recent vintages of this wine. Very strong underlying backbone. The wine's lovely sweetness carries through to the very long finish, which features dusty, even tannins. 93(+?) points By Stephen Tanzer Stephen Tanzer's International Wine Cellar, May/June 99 Saturated deep ruby. Pungent, superripe aromas of cassis, blueberry, minerals and brown spices. A step up in flavor intensity and density. Lovely combination of sweet fruit and solid acid/tannin backbone. Quite firm and extremely long on the aftertaste. An outstanding early showing for this wine. 92-95 points
