96 points the Wine Advocate
-The 2nd Vintage ever to receive the Wine Advocate's highest Cabernet Vintage score of 96 points
94-97 points the Wine Spectator
-The Greatest Vintage this Decade
 
Do not miss out on the spectacular 2007 vintage if you are a Cabernet lover. This 2007 vintage is great both to drink now and to cellar as the quality of the wines across all price points are good to exceptional.
 
Having two renowned major publications agree on the quality of the 2007 vintage and with the wines receiving such high scores, most of these wines have already been sold out.
 
In addition, with the advancement of winemaking technology and techniques being made throughout California, these wines are definite collectibles that will offer tremendous pleasure for years to come.  Plus, the 2007 and 2006 Napa Valley vintages rival that of the 2007 and 2006 Bordeaux vintages-it would be wonderful to taste these wines in the coming years and see if Bordeaux or Napa will showcase better with some age.

96 Points & Cellar Selection - Wine Enthusiast Magazine:
"A huge Cabernet, in the best sense of the word. It wasn’t the easiest vintage, as 2007 was, but meticulous winemaking did the job, resulting in this amazingly rich, impressively ripe wine that’s drinkable now and will develop for many years. The fruits veer toward blackberries, cherries and cola, and the tannins are soft and refined. One hundred percent new French oak isn’t at all heavy, lending nuances of buttered toast and sweet wood tannins. Will easily age for 15 years. Cellar Selection." —S.H. (Feb 2012)

2007 Cain Concept—The Benchland is Cabernet Sauvignon from the classical “benchlands” of the Napa Valley. Cabernet grown on the eastern and western benches of Oakville, Rutherford, and St. Helena has defined the greatness of the Napa Valley for more than 100 years. In the Cain way, we blend using Cabernet Franc and Merlot to add nuance, structure, and length to the finish. 2007 will be recognized as the best year of the decade for Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon. Moderate yields, uniform ripening, a warm May, followed by a moderate summer and a warm September brought everything together. If there is a tiny quibble with this vintage it would be about ripeness, which was so easy to attain that it might be possible to overshoot. Fault this wine, perhaps, for too much generosity.

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate - 93 Points:
"The 2007 Cabernet Sauvignon Stags Leap (75% Cabernet Sauvignon and the rest Merlot, Malbec, Petit Verdot, and Cabernet Franc) is everything that one expects in a wine from this sector that is known for elegance, harmony, and Margaux-like finesse. A perfectly balanced Cabernet, it exhibits a dense purple color along with a big, sweet nose of spring flowers, black and red currants as well as graphite. It is deep, rich, young, and promising with plenty of tannin, but an unmistakable, profound minerality. Although accessible, 2-3 years of bottle age will be beneficial, and the wine should age for two decades."

93 Points - Robert Parker's Wine Advocate:
"Ratcheting up the level of elegance and complexity, the 2008 Cabernet Sauvignon Poetry Stags Leap (composed of 78% Cabernet Sauvignon, 11% Cabernet Franc and the rest Merlot, Petit Verdot and a tiny bit of Malbec) is very Chateau Margaux-like with its floral notes interwoven with black currants, graphite and toast. With admirable power, finesse and freshness, it is a beautifully balanced, medium to full-bodied wine with a layered richness and a long, supple finish. Consume it over the next 15-20+ years." - Robert Parker (Dec 2010)

Wine Enthusiast Magazine:
"Lots of ripe cherries, blackberries and dried herbs in this young, vigorous wine. Shows considerable power and authority, at the loss perhaps of some charm and elegance. Drink it over the next 6–8 years." —S.H.  (6/1/2011)

90 Points - Connoisseurs' Guide to California Wine (2007 vintage):
"Here is another nicely crafted wine from Bell. Its curranty, briary varietal aromas are met by enriching notes of roasted vanilla and a bare whiff of green olive and are followed on the palate by a full-bodied, fairly supple wine with attractive flavors that echo all that has gone before. Tannin tightens the wine towards the back and asks a half decade of cellaring." (August 2010)

90 Points - Robert Parker's Wine Advocate:
"The dark-colored 1998 Harrison Hill Vineyard was produced from vines planted in 1962. Black cherries, blackberries, and spices can be discerned in its aromatic profile. This plump, seamless, refined, light to medium-bodied, pure 1998 is filled with red and black fruit flavors. There are no hard edges. It is not a powerful wine, but one that delivers oodles of pleasure through its symmetry and detail. Drink it over the next decade." - Pierre Rovani (Oct 2001)

90 Points - Robert Parker's Wine Advocate:
"What is Harrison Hill, and why does it cost so much? One of the oldest (planted in ’62) vineyards in Washington, it includes Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc and Merlot vines, all of which are used in this blend. Along with the cassis, black cherry and sweet chocolate/bitter coffee flavors one might expect from a high-end Washington red, there is an indefinable taste of terroir-flower, stone, earth, stable - that elevates the wine to the next level." —P.G.  (6/1/2000)
