He Li An Thus 2014 750 ML

93 points and two stars from the Connoisseurs’ Guide to Calfornia Wine: “High in ripeness, high in extraction and high in oak, this deep, plushy textured Cabernet is designed to please the hedonist in us all. For all of its billowy bounty, the wine is keen on discreet varietal fruit, and its inviting themes of cherries and cassis are lifted in richness by plentiful sweet oak. Although fairly tight at the finish and firmed by lots of young tannins, it is on track for improvement and promises to only get better over the next five to ten years.” (December 2008) 91 points Wine Spectator: “A ripe, zesty expression of Cabernet, with ripe cherry, plum and raspberry fruit that’s clean, focused and refreshing, ending with an elegant mouthfeel and fine-grained tannins. Drink now through 2014.” (10/08)
