Color: Clear, garnet core to a faded garnet rim Nose: beautiful and pronounced red berry fruit. Cassis, black cherry, fig, coffee, slight lead/oak component, but mostly fruit Taste: confirms nose, red fruit, black cherry; tannin structure solid, refined yet firm tannins, smooth, medium lasting finish Overall: great example of aged California Cab, a testament to Ric's winemaking skill; DRINK NOW!

Not very strong acidity, however, for its age it held up very well. very beautiful tropical notes and oak. Excellent as an aperitif or with a salad course.
