Packs in lots of deep, ripe plum, blackberry and wild berry flavors shaded by cedary, toasty oak, with touches of black licorice and sage. Full-bodied, firm and structured, this is a powerful style that's notably well-oaked but also impeccably balanced, smooth and at points fleshy, before the tannins firm up.

Opaque garnet-brick colored, the 2007 Cabernet Sauvignon Darius II reveals bold crème de cassis, baked plums, raisin cake and dried mulberries scents with touches of mocha, black olives, mossy bark and tar. Full-bodied, powerfully fruited and oh-so-decadent in the mouth, it has a velvety backbone supporting the generous fruit and finishes with a persistent spicy lift. (LPB)

Lots of intense blueberry character, with flowers, berries, and hints of vanilla bean on the nose. Full bodied, with a solid core of fruit and medium-chewy tannins. Powerful, but not jammy. Give it two to three years. Bit of a fruit bomb. 15+23+23+32. Find the wine.

Notes

94 points Robert Parker for Wine Advocate: "The 2007 Cabernet Sauvignon Darius II is more tightly knit and restrained aromatically, but what is there is impressive. A dense ruby/purple color is accompanied by aromas of graphite, spring flowers, black currants, and sweet black cherries. The wine hits the palate with tremendous opulence, richness, and intensity. The complexity does not yet equal the 2006, but there is more to it. The texture is richer, the finish is longer, and the seamlessness of the wine’s overall personality is flawless. This beauty should hit its peak in 3-4 years, and last for 20-25." (02/2010)
