Drank with Pedro and Kashi at Big Mama's Hacienda. Tasted then blended with 1997 Phelps Cabernet to make the poor man's Insignia meritage (blend of 80% Cabernet/20% Merlot). Missing the Petite Verdot in blend but it still turned out great.

Surprising with dirty red cherry fruit and earth, dusty smooth tannins, and a fairly long finish.

Very good - might've been a bit past it's peak though.

Mild fruit flavors of cherry. Very few tannins left. Decanting helped at this age.
