While every wine was good, the following wines stood out:    2005 Groth Vineyards Cabernet Sauvignon – Smooth with a nice price point ($55)    2005 Hoopes Vineyards Oakville Cabernet Sauvignon – This barrel sample was pretty darn good.     2005 Kelleher Family Vineyards, Brix Vineyard, Oakville     2005 Miner Family Vineyards – Cabernet Sauvignon Oakville    2005 Oakville East Wine Company, Exposure Cabernet Sauvignon – Big Fan.  I can’t wait to taste this again!     2004 Opus One ($180, 22,000 cases)    2004 Paradigm Merlot ($44, 830 cases)    2004 Paradigm Cabernet Sauvignon (Sheet incorrectly states 2005) – This wine offers a lot of complexity.  Big fan.
