like many of my Washington wines, this bottle doesn't seem to have needed the age i allowed it. nice drinking, dark in color, but nothing to suggest that it's improved at all or will continue to evolve. glad i opened up a space in my cellar. i think their $22-ish claret is a better buy.

i haven't been all that impressed with how well the Sequel ages, but this bottle seems to have held up quite well. still displaying nice tannins--could probably go for another year.
