Trivium 2006 Les Ivrettes Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon (St. Helena)

Price $60

With a blast of smoky, sweet new oak and profoundly ripe flavors of blackberry essence and cassis, this single-vineyard wine is not particularly subtle, although it is dry and classically balanced. The suggestion is ageability, to let things calm down and mellow. It’s a gamble, but this 100% Cabernet could be stunning after 2012. — S.H. (12/31/2009)

Trivium 2007 Les Ivrettes Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon (St. Helena)

Cellar Selection

Price $65

A good, dry, fleshy wine. Not showing well now in its youth, because it’s tannic and unintegrated, with flavors flying all over the place. But there’s a solid core of blackberry and black cherry sour candy, a good sign. Give it at least 4–5 years in the cellar, and try again. — S.H. (4/1/2011)
