"The 2014 Cabernet Sauvignon Panek Vineyard is dense, powerful and beautifully resonant in the glass. Inky blue/purplish berry fruit, crème de cassis, menthol, toasty new oak spice and licorice abound. What I like most about the Panek is the wine's freshness and energy, two qualities that are not easy to achieve in this northern sector of St. Helena, and that serve to balance the intensity of the fruit. Best of all, the 2014 will drink well with minimal cellaring." 94ag
