Give this one some time - deep leather now and will continue to develop

Can't believe how well this stood up to time. A nice surprise.

It was OK - fruity, with a little mineral - almost effervescent

Black Cherry and a little leather. Still good, but I'll drink what I have left now.

A consistent great "drinker" burgers to rack of lamb. This works

Wonderful deep, rich cab that paired wonderfully with lamb chops for a special evening. Decanted for 45 minutes and it opened up.

A very good very day wine - Had it again on Thanksgiving 2005 - because it is fairly light, it went well with the bird

Good, not great - standard CA Chardonnay - too much oak for the wine - for the money, I'll stay in France

Wine had certainly passed - getting too sweet and loosing it's character
