Note di degustazione
The 2007 Cabernet Sauvignon Deep Time has a medium garnet color and sings of Indian spices, baked plums and crème de cassis with forest floor, black truffles and iron ore accents plus a waft of potpourri. The full-bodied palate delivers a firm yet plushly textured foundation to support the generous black and blue fruit preserves flavors with bags of earthy nuances and a very long finish. The sensuous mouthfeel on this wine, in particular, is to be commended!

The 2007 Cabernet Sauvignon Deep Time is gorgeous. The personality of the vintage is very well suited to the extended time in barrel (40-50 months) Woodbridge gives this wine. All the elements are in the right place. Rich, dark and sumptuous, the 2007 is totally seamless on the palate, yet at the same time, there is more than enough support from the tannins. This is yet another compelling, totally beguiling wine from Jayson Woodbridge.
(a very limited bottling from selected lots of cabernet aged for three to four years in barrel): Good dark red. Musky aromas of dried cherry, licorice and smoke; rich but missing the high notes of Jayson Woodbridge's top 2009 bottlings. Chewy, saline and rich in the mouth but a bit undifferentiated. Finishes with building, dusty, lightly tarry tannins and a lingering note of licorice. A very rich cabernet but I'm not convinced that this vintage began with enough verve to support extended aging in barrel.

Anticipated maturity: 2014-2027. ||Jayson Woodbridge is one of the most focused and determined people I have ever met in the Napa Valley, or anywhere, for that matter. A man of deeply held convictions, Woodbridge knows exactly what he wants to achieve and won’t let anyone get in the way. His inner drive and passion are both remarkable. I suppose surviving cancer at the age of 18 will do that to you. Hundred Acre fans will find much to admire in this set of new releases. The Hundred Acre Cabernet Sauvignons remain some of the most distinctive wines being made in Napa Valley today.||Tel. (707) 967-9398 Wine Advocate.December, 2012
