WA 93+ (12/2008): The 2006 Cabernet Sauvignon reveals the vintage’s burly, masculine, and muscular side. The wine is stacked and packed with fruit, extract, tannin, and muscle, but possesses much less suppleness and complexity than the 2005 or the sweetness of the 2007. The 2006, with chocolate, scorched earth, blackberry, and espresso roast notes, is shut down and dense at present, but is impressive, although in a backward style. This wine needs to be forgotten for at least 5-6 years. It is a powerful wine, but don’t touch it before 2013, and drink it over the following three decades.
VM 92+ (6/2009): Good ruby-red. Soil-inflected aromas of mocha, warm stones, tobacco, underbrush and dried berries, with a very ripe, almost liqueur-like aspect. Then big, chewy and deep, with a compelling sweetness to its smoke, tobacco and espresso flavors. Just juicy enough to maintain verve. Less lush and harmonious at this stage than the 2005 was, as its powerful tannic spine calls for several years of patience, but there's something sexy and exotic about this wine. |

| VM 92 (7/2019): Bright, full ruby. Aromas of blackberry, cassis, licorice pastille and tropical dark chocolate are lifted by a violet topnote. Dense, fresh and fine-grained if still a bit youthfully stunted; even more primary than the bottle that was part of my vertical tasting at the winery last year. Very black fruit in character, but leavened by an inviting candied note and complicated by hints of tobacco and earth. The rising finish features well-buffered tannins and lingering soil notes. A superb bottle--and still short of its peak. (Drink between 2022-2035). Stephen Tanzer. |

VM 97 (5/2024): The 2013 Cabernet Sauvignon Seavey Vineyard is a huge, inky wine made in a riper style. Black cherry, plum, cloves, licorice and grilled herbs saturate the palate. This deep, potent Cabernet is seriously impressive. It captures the year's intensely ripe, structured style to a T. The aromatics are beginning to open, which leads me to think the tannins will outlast the fruit. Drink this over the next decade. (Drink between 2023-2033). Antonio Galloni.
WA 95+ (10/2015): The 2013 Cabernet Sauvignon Estate is 97.5% Cabernet Sauvignon and 2.5% Petit Verdot aged 20 months in new French oak and is typically young, backward and for serious connoisseurs to stow away for at least 5-8 years prior to consumption. The 2013 is typically coiled, deep purple in color, with notes of burning embers, créme de cassis, a touch of earth, spice and tobacco leaf. It is full-bodied, moderately tannic and needs to be respected in terms of it not providing a whole lot of pleasure for another 5-8 years. |

WA 95+ (10/2016): The 2014 Cabernet Sauvignon Estate (880 cases) spends 20 months in about 60% new French oak. It is 100% Cabernet Sauvignon and offers up an opaque dense purple color in a structured, but still essentially beautiful wine with classic mulberry, blackcurrant, licorice and truffle-like notes. Earthiness is present as well and, like most Seavey wines, there is no shortage of structure and tannin. This full-bodied classic is somewhat of an anomaly for a 2014, as it needs 3-5 years of cellaring and will keep 30 or more.
VM 93+ (4/2017): Deep ruby. Musky, slightly reduced aromas of black fruits, licorice, graphite and espresso are a bit mute today but hint at sweetness. Wonderfully plush and fine-grained on the palate; still an infant but more complex and less relentlessly primary and monolithic than the 2013 version. Shows more early sweetness and ripeness than that wine but the huge dusty, drought-year tannins nonetheless will require extended aging. Winemaker Jim Duane noted that 2014 featured generally cooler and more variable temperatures than 2013, as well as fewer grapes per cluster and fewer seeds, and that may be why this wine is a bit less monolithic and a touch sweeter in the early going. But I wouldn't bet against the '13. (Drink between 2025-2039). Antonio Galloni. |

| WA 90 (6/2015): This historic estate was acquired by William and the late Mary Seavey in 1979, and their first eye-opening performances, for me, were the 1990 and 1991 Cabernet Sauvignons. Primarily dry-farmed, from steep hillsides in Conn Valley, the challenge, according to winemaking consultant Philippe Melka, has always been to get the tannins under control, as they can be rustic. Certainly he has achieved that consistently for the last decade. The second wine, the 2005 Cabernet Sauvignon Caravina, is 100% Cabernet Sauvignon from younger vines as well as lots that are deemed slightly less intense and more evolved and precocious. The 2005 was showing very well, fully mature, with stunning aromatics of chocolate, loamy soil notes, blackcurrants and licorice. Intense, medium to full-bodied, supple and round, this is a gorgeous second wine that represented over 1,100 cases produced. |

WA 92 (12/2011): The 2009 Cabernet Sauvignon Caravina flows across the palate with gorgeous dark red fruit, smoke, licorice and tobacco. It shows gorgeous mid-palate pliancy and generosity through to a finish laced with flowers, mint and spices. The 2009 impresses for its depth, power and overall sense of harmony. Anticipated maturity: 2014-2024.
VM 90 (5/2012): Bright, deep red-ruby. Expressive aromas and flavors of black cherry, currant, licorice, chocolate and a whiff of game. Plush and voluminous, with a creamy mid-palate texture given shape by subtle minerality. This rather easygoing, round wine already makes a delicious drink. Stephen Tanzer. |

| VM 90 (12/2014): Seavey's 2012 Cabernet Sauvignon Estate Caravina is an attractive wine to drink now and over the next handful of years. Dark red stone fruit, flowers and cinnamon add lift. The flavors are pure and nicely delineated, but the wine's mid-weight structure suggests the 2012 will offer its best drinking sooner rather than later. Antonio Galloni. |
