Adored this. Almost like Northern Rhone Syrah, smoke and violets and meat. Galicia in full force on the list at Aldea. — 11 years ago

The 98 drinks more like a Pinot now than the petit Syrah it was, although always it was a wine of greater subtlety and finesse than any petit Syrah I know. It's lighter than a Californian might be but in the Burgundian style it is probably tilting the scale toward fuller body, reflecting an American terroir within that style, or so I speculate. I have adored every stage of its maturation and it is hard for me to say when it gave the most. — 10 years ago

It takes a pretty incredible effort to make a #wine that is so impressive and lovely, yet still so young that everyone at the table unanimously adored it.
This even gives the epic 2012 a run for its money, which is saying something! — 10 years ago

"Sage, rosemary, menthol, dark plums, licorice and sweet tobacco meld together in the 2010 Cabernet Sauvignon Annum. Plush, round and inviting, the 2010 appears to have a very bright future ahead of it. The balance of sweet, layered fruit and the structure of the year is simply dazzling. I have always adored David Ramey's 2010 Cabernets. Today, they are dazzling."
- Antonio Galloni, Vinous, February 2014

​Aging on fine lees incorporates the oak so that the two years the Annum spends in 100% new French barrels is barely noticeable. As with all of our wines, it goes through native yeast and malolactic fermentations. This wine combines the harmony produced by traditional Bordelaise winemaking techniques with the voluptuousness of Napa Valley terroir. It is lightly fined with egg whites and bottled without filtration. — 11 years ago
