This winery has over 100 acres planted in the Russian River Valley, and another 170 acres in the Alexander Valley. With the assistance of the well-known French oenologist, Michel Rolland, Simi and its New Zealand-born winemaker, Nick Goldschmidt, are producing high quality California wines. The emphasis in Simi's non-reserve program is on capturing the varietal's vibrant fruit in as exuberant manner as possible. The Reserve offerings see more oak, and are designed to be more ambitious, fuller-bodied, richer wines.The 1992 Cabernet Sauvignon Reserve (4,000 cases) is an elegant, stylish wine with sweet tannin, and an attractive berry fragrance subtlely infused with toasty oak. It is not a blockbuster Cabernet, nor very intense, but it is admirably constructed in a stylish manner. Drink it over the next 10-15 years. As a postscript, I believe the 1991, 1990, 1987, and 1986 Reserves are far richer and more impressive and complete than the 1992 and 1993 Reserves. Tel. (707) 433-6981; Fax (707) 433-6253
