Extremely backward, closed, hard, tannic, and unyielding, this behemoth of a wine exhibits a saturated purple color, a nondescript bouquet, enormously rich, concentrated flavors, and a boat load of tannin. Unless you are a masochist, do not touch a bottle before the turn of the century.

Immense and dark ruby-black in color, the nose offers mature currant, coffee, sage and dusty berry and anise flavors that have some youthful nuances. Complex and concentrated, it's well-focused and appealing, though it veers into tannic territory on the finish. (JL, Web-2004)

Notes

Antonio Galloni - Vinous: "Randy Dunn is one of Napa Valley's most iconic producers. Over the years and decades Dunn has remained faithful to what he views a classic style of Cabernet Sauvignon. Although in many ways quite introverted and reclusive, Dunn hasn't been shy in his critiquing wines that he feels are overdone, which hasn't exactly won him a ton of friends in some circles. The great irony is that as many of today's generation of young winemakers seek to rediscover the roots of Napa Valley, Dunn's wines, along with those of a handful of producers – including Forman, Togni, Inglenook and Diamond Creek among others – have never been more popular."
