Monday, November 29, 2010 - Opened and started sipping right away; still a pleasant nose of raspberries, floral notes and cigar box. Tight at first but it opened up and had surprising body for a '97. The tannins are fully integrated and the fruit has come to the fore. This wine is a delight and is a credit to the aging potential of Alexander Valley cab. Looking forward to the next bottle but won't wait too long.
