Tasting Notes: The more limited production offerings include the 2007 Cabernet Sauvignon Reserve (700 cases produced). Its opaque purple color is followed by a big, layered mouthfeel with intense richness suggestive of creme de cassis, charcoal, tobacco leaf, and hints of truffles and asphalt. Full-bodied with excellent precision as well as freshness, this complex effort requires 2-3 years of cellaring, and should keep for 25+ years. As I have written in the past, Michael Keenan has done a fabulous job of ratcheting up the quality of the wines from this Spring Mountain estate. Some of the finest wines of Napa Valley are emerging from Robert Keenan Winery.
