Hundred Acre 2008 Ark Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon (Napa Valley)

Price $300

Deserves its high score by virtue of power and sheer flamboyant dazzle. Packed with ripe, sweet cherries and milk chocolate, with a decadently meaty taste, like beef tartare. Oak plays the usual role, adding a caramelly, buttered toast richness. The tannins are brilliant, so soft and sweet, they’re like candy. Drink this flashy wine over the next six years. — S.H.

Hundred Acre 2000 Cabernet Sauvignon (Napa Valley)

Cellar Selection

Price $100

Redolent of rose petals and black cherry in the nose, it fans out into a silky-smooth texture that supports elegant black currant, blackberry, plum, anise and spice flavors with just a hint of chocolate and herbs.

Hundred Acre 2008 Few and Far Between Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon (Napa Valley)

Price $300

Hundred Acre 2008 Kayli Morgan Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon (Napa Valley)

Price $300

Defines the modern, cult Napa Cabernet style, albeit at a hefty price. Soft and rich in tannins and liberally oaked, it shows massively ripe blackberry, cherry and sandalwood flavors, with a meaty, slightly funky note that adds interest. Easy to like right out of the bottle, it’s so decadent. With high alcohol, it doesn’t seem like a longterm ager, so drink over… — S.H. (2/1/2012)

Hundred Acre 2004 Ancient Way Vineyard Summer's Blocks Shiraz (Barossa Valley)

Price $200

Incredibly dark in color but light on its feet, this wine somehow manages to hide its 15.5% alcohol under fruit that’s neither overblown or jammy. Spice- and herb-driven complexity is the order of the day, with scents of violets lending an exotic note to the aromas. It's mouthfilling and palate-coating but wonderfully balanced, picking up hints of black olive and… — J.C. (11/1/2007)
