Absolutely lovely, even at 26 years old. This is what i want from a Cali Cab. a little cigar box on the open, but then beautiful soft fruit and soft tannins and a medium finish. wish i had more.

Opened a bottle of this about 5 years ago and it seemed totally out of balance. It has improved greatly since then. Full bodied but smooth with beautifully integrated tannins, feels like it is not close to the peak. So glad it improved over time.

Some nice cherry in the wine and quite drinkable, but very light and I was hoping for more given the vintage.
