    | Markham Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon 1994 - Purchased at Safeway in Lahaina, Maui - $18. When this 
    wine review appeared in WS, this wine disappeared from wine stores. I found 
    and bought this at  Safeway in Lahaina, Maui. |

    - Markham Napa Valley 
    Cabernet Sauvignon 1994 - RM 91 WS 
    92 Spectator Selection - Rich ripe currant, black cherry and hint of cedar 
    with long tight but polished finish. Much more tasty fruit and more 
    approachable than bottle lat opened last summer. |

    - Markham Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon 1994 - WS 92 Spectator 
    Selection - RM 85 Earthy, smoky black raspberry and black cherry with a 
    tight tannic finish. Digging out the 10 yr olds from the cellar. Declining 
    ratings tell me that this wine is starting to decline? Or perhaps anomalous 
    bottle... | 
  
    | Reviewed 12/03/03 - Markham Napa Valley Cabernet 
      Sauvignon 1994 RM 90 WS 92 SS $18 Rich cherry, currant - slightly 
      awkward initially but has a long big smooth pleasant finish of subtle 
      currant and pronounced blackcherry. Much better than a couple years ago 
    when this wine was closed and 'lost'. This wine was a tremendous value for 
    this quality and price - a huge achievement for this producer.  May be at its prime 
      now. | 
  
    | 1994 Markham Napa Valley 
    Cabernet Sauvignon - WS 92 RM 91 $24. One of the top ten wines of the 
    vintage - WS Top Ten - tough to find at the time - I squirreled away a case 
    & resisted tapping it till now! I opened this for OTBN (Open That Bottle 
    Night - WSJ Gaither Feb 1, 2002). |
