April 27, 2024 - Had the 2008 a few months ago and it was definitely past its prime. A little worried as we opened this bottle for our 22nd anniversary, but so glad we were wrong. This is the perfect cabernet sauvignon, which we paired with a luscious medium rare ribeye cap. Smooth, bright, fruity, easy to drink without having to decant or aerate. If you still have a bottle and are worried...worry no more. This is one of the best cabs we have had in a long while.

January 31, 2021 - Very enjoyable Napa cab. Opened about 4 hours before dinner with 3+ in the decanter. Soft, relaxed tannins. Nose of plum, currants, butter cream, light vanilla, baking spices, chocolate. Acidic, but no overly powering compared to the fruit. A little hot but not distractingly so, it does dominate the end of a mid to long finish, though.
Paired well with a beef roast.
Should have a few years left but definitely drank well now. -
