Reviews - Cabernet Sauvignon

Wine Advocate 92

The 2009 Hendry Cabernet Sauvignon flows across the palate with gorgeous depth and richness.  Black currants, flowers, violets, spice and earth are some of the many notes that ring out in this medium-bodied yet fleshy, textured wine.  The 2009 impresses for its depth, polish and pure refinement. I loved it. Anticipated maturity, 2014-2029.

The 2008 Hendry Cabernet Sauvignon is another rich, extroverted wine.  Black plums, blackberries, tar and smoke are some of the notes that flow from this bold, deeply flavored Cabernet Sauvignon.  Grilled herbs and licorice develop in the glass, adding further complexity.  I especially like the plushness and depth of the finish.  Anticipated maturity: 2012-2020.

Hendry Napa Valley 2008 Cabernet Sauvignon

Dusty, fragrant, lifted aromas of cream, cassis, wood spice and cherry.  Quite stylish and finely tuned with good underlying acidity and a sleek, fine texture.  Lovely balance and wonderful varietal expression. DECANTER/February 2012

Hendry 2007 Napa Valley Hendry Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon (Napa Valley)

This 100% Cabernet Sauvignon is very strong in blackberries, black currants and cedar.  It’s also quite tannic.  Clearly a rich, well-grown wine, but marked by immaturity , with unintegrated sweet fruit and oak flavors.  Needs a good six years to start to knit together.
