"The 2014 Cabernet Sauvignon Estate, from a vineyard north of St. Helena not far from Vineyard 29, is a beauty. Dense purple in color with notes of blackcurrant, white flowers, licorice and graphite, the wine is full-bodied with sweet tannin, adequate acidity and a long, pure, well-balanced finish. This is a beautiful wine that can be drunk now or cellared . . . . Russian-American NHL hockey player Valeri Bure has moved to Napa Valley to enjoy the Shangri-la lifestyle. He hired Luc Morlet as his winemaking consultant. The first wines I tasted from Bure were the fabulous 2013s, and he has followed that up with strong efforts in 2014."
