Anakota 2002 Helena Montana Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon (Knights Valley)
- Cellar Selection
- $80
Mountain grapes have yielded an intense, concentrated young Cabernet, grown on the Sonoma side of Mount St. Helena. The wine is brash, dry and astringently tannic now. But it possesses a classic elegance and refinement and a remarkable core of cassis fruit. How could it not develop, given the balance and harmony? Best 2008–2015.

Anakota 2002 Helena Dakota Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon (Knights Valley)
- $80
It’s sometimes overlooked that Jess Jackson produces very small quantities of competitive wines such as this. This 100% Cabernet is a mountain wine, dense in tannins and very dry, yet intense in classically Cabernet black currant fruit. The all new French oak feels natural. As good as it is, more refinement is necessary, but Anakota is a label worth watching.
