When their prices started taking off, I directed more purchases to Brunello di Montalcino and Napa cabs. If you get a chance, try some Howell Mountain cabs; I think you'll enjoy them (especially Cade, O'Shaughnessy, Outpost and Dunn). Cheers!

I opened the bottle 30 minutes before dinner and pured it in the decanter just to take out the depot, then back into the bottle. Was a wonderful, round and mild Paulliac, black fruit, some banana and choclate finish. The wine didn't change much with air over 4 hours so I guess that it will remain for years on this level. Fully mature now in my opinion. My description may not be applicable generally because my cellar is rather cold (11 C, this should be 51 F), thus wines develop rather slowly. Thanks again for your suggestions, kind regards from Zurich! Edgar
