Ric Forman replanted his original vineyard in 1997, switching to denser "Pomerol spacing," with vines running up and down the slope. Until the new vines come into production, his red wines beginning with the '97s will come almost entirely from Thorvilos Vineyard, his joint venture with David Abreu, the vineyard manager behind many of the North Coast most prized wines (Forman makes Abreu's cabernet, which comes from the old Madrona Vineyard on the other side of St. Helena). Forman's reds are suppler and more complete than ever before, and rank as wonderful values by the standards of California wine today. Forman himself is appalled by current pricing in California, especially by upstarts who want $75 a bottle for their first vintage of cabernet. At the same time, however, he is concerned that maintaining stable pricing for his wines when prices elsewhere are skyrocketing will send the wrong message to consumers.
