Then there are Abeja's Reserve Cabs, of which I believe there are only two vintages. Based on a barrel sampling I ordered a half-case of I think it was the 2002; I'm not sure of the year as the bottles are buried at the bottom of one of my bins. Then when I tasted from a bottle on release it was just about the tightest Cab I've ever encountered. I mentioned that to the winemaker last Saturday and he said wait for ten years, the wine's still a little tight.
