December 25, 2018 - Bottle was so much different than the Far Niente 2007 we consumed in our pairing. Far Niente had much longer it could go but the Nickel & Nickel was far more ready to drink. It started with funk on the nose and that blew off an hour after opening.

April 10, 2016 - Served with lamb at Easter dinner. A delicious, straight-forward, full-bodied Cab. All enjoyed this wine.
