Monday, December 23, 2013 - 2nd bottle from a case of mags purchased directly from the winery in 2011. First bottle was consumed one year ago on my son's (also a 1991 vintage) 21st birthday and didn't show particularly well, so we were anxious to try this again (on his 22nd birthday!).

This bottle was showing beautifully. Bottle was decanted and immediately poured. Nose was expressive from the start. On the palate, everything was working together - lots of fruit, very complex, tannins perfectly integrated but still present. Finish was excellent - long, lingering and powerful. We consumed the bottle over a good hour, and it continued to improve throughout - the last sips were the best of all.

Classic aged California cab in a really great spot right now.
