B Side 2009 Cabernet Sauvignon (Napa Valley)
- Editors' Choice
- $25
From Don Sebastiani & Sons, a dramatically ripe, concentrated Cabernet, with fine, firm tannins framing blackberry, blueberry and cassis flavors. Really easy to drink now, and the price is quite good for the quality.

B Side 2005 Cabernet Sauvignon (Napa Valley)
- $24
Holds its own in a tasting of Napa Cabs that cost, three, four, even five times as much. Made with a drop of Petite Sirah, it’s dry, firmly tannic and complex, with black currant, beef jerky, miso, pepper spice and smoky oak flavors. Best now and for a couple years.

B Side 2010 Cabernet Sauvignon (Napa Valley)
- $30
This is a rich Cabernet for drinking now. It’s ripe and forward in blackberries, plums and mocha, and the finish is spicy. Give it a brief decant.

B Side 2007 Cabernet Sauvignon (Napa Valley)
- $23
A good and flavorful Cab, with intricate layers of blackberries, currants, anise and cedar, and entirely dry. The drawback is sharpness in the form of green, acidic tannins. Won’t age, so drink up.
