Altus 2007 Cabernet Sauvignon (Napa Valley)
- Online Exclusive
- $70
Made in the modern cult style, this soft, ripely lush Cabernet is immediately likeable for its blackberry-pie filling, black currant liqueur, chocolate, licorice and smoky sweet oak flavors. It’s California Cabernet at its heady, opulent best. Drink now.

Altus 2008 Cabernet Sauvignon (Napa Valley)
- $70
An individualistic, some would say eccentric wine, made from grapes grown all over the valley. Your first impression is of jammy sweetness: blackberries, cherries, raspberries, oak. Then the tannins kick in, bringing needed dryness. Shows the ripeness of Napa Valley Cabernet, but doesn’t seem like an ager. Drink now–2014.
