Wallis Family Estate 2006 Cabernet Sauvignon

Winemaker Phil Steinschriber

75.6% Cabernet Sauvignon, 8.3% Merlot, 6.3% Cab Franc, 9.8% Petit Verdot

300 Cases Produced, Alcohol 14.5%

“A superior Cabernet that shows, first and foremost, Diamond Mountain’s famous tannins. They make the mouthfeel a little hard, but the wine is so rich in blackberries and plums, you hardly notice. Beautiful now, with decanting, and should develop for six years.” -S.H. 92 Points Awarded

Wallis Family Estate 2006 “Little Sister” Proprietary Red

Winemaker Phil Steinschriber

89.2% Cabernet Sauvignon, 10.8% Petit Verdot, 300 Cases Produced

“This is a kind of junior Cab to the winery’s regular Diamond Mountain bottling, whose 2006 was spectacular. The Little Sister is similarly rich and oaky, with broad flavors of blackberries and currants. It’s very tannic, and should improve over the next 2-4 years.” -S.H. 90 Points Awarded

"Smooth and velvety with ripe plum and toasted oak; firm texture with good acidity and balance, long and good aging potential." -A.B. 90 Points Awarded by The Tasting Panel Magazine
