Notes from the Winemaker:
M5 is the name of the vineyard block from which all of the Cabernet Sauvignon in this wine is sourced. This wine speaks of the unique terroir of the Heart of Stagecoach Vineyard. Incredibly deep and dark in color with layered aromas of ripe blackberry, lilac, cedar and black pepper. Robust entry with flavors of briary fruits, chocolate and bing cherry. Beautiful phenolic structure with fine grained tannins that are long and lingering. Decanting recommended. Drink now through 2025.

Ratings & Reviews
93 Points - Robert Parker's Wine Advocate:
"The 2010 Cabernet Sauvignon M5 is another sweet, layered totally beautiful wine. Mocha, roasted, espresso beans, cloves and dark raspberries are all woven together in a dark, sumptuous wine that impresses for its expressive personality. Graphite, pencil shavings and cigar box are layered into the finish. Anticipated maturity: 2015-2025. " - Antonio Galloni (Dec 2012)
