Valley Legend 2007 Cabernet Sauvignon (Napa Valley)

  1. $85
Very ripe, rich and decadent, with flavors of blackberries, cherries, chocolate, anise, smoked butter, black pepper and sweet oak. Delicious right out of the bottle and for the next six years.  — S.H.  (12/15/2009)

Valley Legend 2009 Cabernet Sauvignon (Napa Valley)

  1. $55
Scads of ripe blackberry, blueberry, cherry and Cocoa Puff fruit flavors on this Cabernet, which is also rich in sweet, buttery oak. It’s delicious by definition, yet the modern style could use some restraint.  — S.H.  (3/1/2012)

Valley Legend 2008 Cabernet Sauvignon (St. Helena)

  1. $65
Over-oaked, with caramelized vanilla aromas and flavors dominating. Under all that is a pretty good Cabernet, with blackberry and cherry flavors and smooth tannins.  — S.H.  (11/1/2010)

Valley Legend 2009 Cabernet Sauvignon (St. Helena)

  1. $60
With a soft mouthfeel and upfront cherry, blueberry and blackberry flavors, this Cabernet puts all its chips on sheer deliciousness. It’s a winner, but not an ager. Drink now.  — S.H.  (5/1/2012)

Valley Legend 2010 Cabernet Sauvignon (Napa Valley)

  • Online Exclusive
  1. $55
This Cabernet starts out tight and resistant. Although it has plenty of ripe cherry and blackberry fruit, there’s something pinched about the mouthfeel. It’s a good wine that will benefit from airing, but doesn’t seem likely to improve in the cellar.  — S.H.  (2/1/2013)

Valley Legend 2008 Cabernet Sauvignon (Napa Valley)

  1. $55
Soft and tannic, with jammy flavors of blackberries, cherries, dark chocolate and spices. Not showing much structure, and not going anywhere, so drink up.  — S.H.  (2/1/2011)
