I agree with others who think this cab is at it's perfect age. Little components on the nose, but full and rich on the palate right after opening. Distinct lack of tanniins. 45 minutes later, consumed with Beef Wellington. The nose opened some with notes of cocoa and blackberries. The palate was even more dramatic, adding other dark berries and earth. But the finish was amazing - lasted a good 30 seconds with a long and powerful ending in the throat. I suspect this wine is at it's peak now.
