Didn’t have the browning around the edges others have mentioned and the aromas on the wine were vibrant. It paired beautifully with a grilled steak and roasted vegetables. Was worried I had held this too long, but was pleasantly surprised.

Don’t drink much Cabernet from Napa any more for context, this had cassis, smoke, vanilla, blackberry, balck cherry, dark chocolate on the nose, full body, with low acidity with a slight creamy yet bitter and slight hotish mouthfeel medium plus finish, well made wine just not something I gravitate towards

Garnet with a bit of brown around the edge. First nose of jammy fruits, plum, and fig. Second nose of opens up with dark fruits of blueberry and black raspberry. Very smooth with mellow tanins.

Held up nicely after 10years. Still plenty of ripe cherry and blackberry with soft ripe tannins. Finished long and full of fruit, was excellent with rib eye
