Really excellent mature Napa Bordeaux blend. The cab franc really stands up here as a surprise in the mid to late palate. PV also is highlighted early. But the structure of this wine owes to CS, which is middle weight and delightfully long.

Very intriguing and not what I expected from a Cabernet dominant blend. Dead ringer for a right bank Bordeaux. Still very well structured with well integrated tannins.
Dusty nose with leather and tobacco notes.

Smells like a fall afternoon. A little acidic. The balance in this wine is amazing. Would not hold bottles for too much longer though.

let this one get away. Last 3 were bottle of the night winners. This one not so much, drinkable but past it's prime
