Definitely into decline but super enjoyable especially if you like older Napa Cab. Extreamly well preserved bottle burried in the bottom of a dark cellar since release. Musty leathery black fruit, sweet raspberry, vanilla extract, damp soil, and prune. Still some that builds in the glass but not going to improve in my opinion.

Lots of sediment. Decanted 45 min. Lots of fruit. Leather. Vanilla. Past it’s prime? Maybe. Paired with a rib eye so complimented well.

First 10 minutes tasted just ok, then went south quick

Still a very nice wine. Threw off a lot of sediment, but well balanced at the moment and had a really good nose. Improved from 18 months ago.

Dark and opaque. Peppery with flavors of over-ripe blackberry and Toblerone.
