Aurielle 2008 Cabernet Sauvignon (Napa Valley)
- $90
Aurielle’s Cabernets have been consistent over the years, offering lots of ripe, modern-style blackberry, blueberry, dark chocolate and oak flavors in a wine that’s drinkable now. This ’08 is quite stylish and elegant despite the power, with near-perfect tannins. You could age it, but it’s really best enjoyed for flashy, youthful richness.

Aurielle 2006 Cabernet Sauvignon (Napa Valley)
- Cellar Selection
- Online Exclusive
- $90
Very ripe and jammy, showing primary fruit blackberries, cherries, black currants and cola, and lots of new, smoky oak. A big wine wrapped into big, sweet tannins that’s tasting a bit direct now. The suggestion is ageability. With the grapes coming off two mountains, Howell and Veeder, it should cruise through the next 6–8 years.

Aurielle 2007 Cabernet Sauvignon (Napa Valley)
- $90
This very soft, ripe wine is forward and lush in black cherry, blackberry, blueberry and milk chocolate flavors, with a rich veneer of caramelized oak. It’s delicious now, and should remain appealing for the next 4–5 years.
